Retigabine
An antiepileptic also known as ezogabine, with an original mechanism: it opens KCNQ (Kv7) potassium channels in the brain, stabilising neurons. It was approved in the European Union in 2011 as an add-on treatment for partial epilepsies in adults. This family brings together the active ingredient, labelled standards, nitrosamines and other impurities.
Did you know?It is a chemical 'cousin' of flupirtine, a painkiller with a similar mechanism: the two molecules differ mainly in one ring, a benzene ring in retigabine and a pyridine ring in flupirtine.
