Carisbamate is an investigative neuromodulator that was developed for the treatment of epilepsy. The mechanism of action of carisbamate is not fully understood. However, there is evidence suggesting that one mechanism carisbamate exerts its antiepileptic effects through inhibition of voltage-gated sodium channels. Antiepileptic drugs may exert their effects by interfering with the neuronal GABA systems (3). Another study provided evidence suggesting that the mechanism of action is carisbamate’s ability to block T-type calcium channels in neurons and prevent excessive intracellular calcium accumulation. Carisbamate also inhibits voltage-gated sodium channels and can modulate the activation of a GABA mediated chloride conductance.
