Cenobamate: A Game Changer For Epilepsy? - Ricardo Morcos

Cenobamate is an anti-seizure medication being called a "game-changer" by many neurologists - such as our guest, Ricardo Morcos. Ricardo explains how the drug works, the minimal side-effects or interactions with other medications identified, and how it's leading to 100% seizure control in approx. 20% of those with refractory focal epilepsy. This is part 1 of 2.
Please note that this is not an endorsement of any particular anti-seizure medication (Cenobamate or any of the others mentioned) and any questions or ideas from a patient or carer must be brought up with one’s neurologist/epileptologist.
