Once-A-Day Pregabalin For Partial Seizures

Summary

Approximately 30% percent of subjects with partial seizures are refractory to treatment with single or combination antiepileptic drugs. The present study will compare the efficacy of two different dosages of pregabalin CR dosed once daily as compared to placebo, when used as adjunctive therapy in subjects requiring adjunctive therapy for partial onset epilepsy, using a randomized, parallel group design.
