Open Comparative Long-Term Study of Vigabatrin vs Carbamazepine in Newly Diagnosed Partial Seizures in Children Arch Neurol 56:605-607, Zamponi,N.&Cardinali,C., 1999 See this aricle in Pubmed Article Abstract The efficacy of vigabatrin and carbamazepine was similar, with the suggestion of a better side effect profile with vigabatrin. Vigabatrin monotherapy should be considered as a monotherapeutic treatment option in patients with newly diagnos ed epilepsy. However, more studies are needed to evaluate other issues of concern, such as the cognitive and behavioral adverse effects of antiepileptic drugs, to determine the most suitable therapy.
