Epilepsy combo therapy shows promise in seizure freedom
NCT ID NCT01345058
First seen Apr 29, 2026 · Last updated May 10, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looked at whether adding a low dose of lacosamide to levetiracetam works better than a high dose of levetiracetam alone for people with epilepsy who still had seizures on low-dose levetiracetam. 56 adults took part. The main goal was to see how many became seizure-free for six months. This is a disease control study, not a cure, as epilepsy typically requires ongoing medication.
