Sipatrigine (619C89) is an antiepileptic compound with neuroprotective activity through glutamate release, TREK ion channels, TRESK channels, sodium channels, and calcium channel inhibitors in the CNS, and can be used to study TRESK channels.

Sultiame is an inhibitor of carbonic anhydrase. Sultiame can be used in antiepileptic research.

Sabeluzole (R-58735) has antiepileptic and cognitive enhancing effects, inhibits neurotoxin-induced tau expression and cell death.Sabeluzole is protective against chlordiazepoxide-induced habituation disorders and may be useful in the study of Alzheimer's disease.

Elpetrigine (GW273293) is a potential sodium channel blocker with antiepileptic activity that can be used to study epilepsy.

Anticonvulsant agent 2 is a potent, orally active anticonvulsant demonstrating antiepileptic activity in a drug-resistant epilepsy model.

Phenytoin sodium (Diphantoine) is an inactive stabilizer for voltage-gated sodium channel .

Gamibetal (4-Amino-3-hydroxybutyric Acid) is used as a chiral reagent in the synthesis of antiepileptic and hypotensive drug GABOB and analogues. Also used in the preparation of HIV-1 inhibitors derived from Betulinic Acid (B330250).

Levetiracetam (SIB-S1) is a relatively unique anticonvulsant that is typically used in combination with other antiepileptic medications for partial onset seizures. Levetiracetam has been linked to rare instances of serum aminotransferase and alkaline phosphatase elevations during treatment and to rare cases of clinically apparent drug induced liver disease.

Iminodibenzyl is used for the intermediates of antiepileptic drug carbamazepine.

Phenytoin (5,5-Diphenylhydantoin) is a hydantoin derivative and a non-sedative antiepileptic agent with anticonvulsant activity. It potentially acts by promoting sodium efflux from neurons in the motor cortex, reducing post-tetanic potentiation at synapses. This prevents cortical seizure foci from spreading to adjacent areas and stabilizes the threshold against hyperexcitability. Additionally, it appears to reduce muscle spindle sensitivity to stretch, causing muscle relaxation.

Proglumide (Binoside) is a cholecystokinin antagonist, which blocks both the CCKA and CCKB subtypes. Proglumide is a drug that exerts an inhibitory effect on gastric secretion and reduces gastrointestinal motility. It is used clinically in the drug therapy of gastrointestinal ulcers.

L-5-Hydroxytryptophan (L-5-HTP), the immediate precursor in the biosynthesis of SEROTONIN from tryptophan, is used as an antiepileptic and antidepressant.

1. p-Hydroxybenzaldehyde (p-Oxybenzaldehyde) shows an inhibitory effect on the GABA transaminase to contribute to an antiepileptic and anticonvulsive activity, and its inhibitory activity was higher than that of valproic acid, a known anticonvulsant.

5-hydroxytryptophan (NSC-92523) is the immediate precursor in the biosynthesis of SEROTONIN from tryptophan. It is used as an antiepileptic and antidepressant.

Divalproex Sodium (Valproate semisodium) binds to and inhibits gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) transaminase and its anticonvulsant activity may be exerted by increasing brain concentration of GABA and by inhibiting enzymes that catabolize GABA or block the reuptake of GABA into glia and nerve endings. It also is an HDAC inhibitor, Comprised of sodium valproate and valproic acid with anticonvulsant and antiepileptic activities. Divalproex may also work by suppressing repetitive neuronal firing through the inhibition of voltage-sensitive sodium channels.

E2730 is an orally active, selective, and non-competitive GABA transporter 1 (GAT1) inhibitor with antiepileptic activity, used in neurological disease research.

Qingyangshengenin B (Otophylloside B) is a C-21 steroidal glycoside isolated from Qingyangshen. Qingyangshengenin B protects against Aβ toxicity, which decreases Aβ deposition by decreasing the expression of Aβ at the mRNA level. Qingyangshengenin B has antiepileptic and anti-aging effects, it can extend lifespan, increase heat stress-resistance, delay body paralysis, and increase the chemotaxis response in C. elegans models of Alzheimer's disease. Otophylloside B can suppress the seizure-like locomotor activity caused by pentylenetetrazole in zebrafish.

WWL123 is a potent and selective ABHD6 inhibitor (IC50=430 nM). WWL123 crosses the blood-brain-barrier and inhibits ABHD6 in brain parenchyma. ABHD6 blockade by WWL123 exerts an antiepileptic effect in Pentylenetetrazole (PTZ)-induced epileptiform seizures and spontaneous seizures in R6 2 mice.

Valrocemide (TV1901), also known as TV-1901, is an antiepileptic drug (AED). Valrocemide has a broad spectrum of anticonvulsant activity and promising potential as a new AED. Valrocemide is an anticonvulsant agent under development by Teva and Acorda as a potential therapeutic for the treatment of epilepsy.
