Report Description
Anticonvulsants, also commonly known as antiepileptic drugs or antiseizure drugs are a diverse
group of pharmacology agents used in the treatment of epileptic seizures. Epilepsy is a chronic
disorder resulting in repeated and unprovoked seizures. Epileptic seizures are commonly
referred as convulsions. Anticonvulsants are mainly used for treatment of epileptic seizures.
Epileptic seizures are caused by disturbance in the electrical activity of the brain. In addition,
anticonvulsants are also used in treatment of bipolar disorder and in neuropathic pain
management.
Anyone could potentially have a single epileptic seizure at some point in their lives. This is not
the same as having epilepsy, which is a tendency to have seizures that start in the brain. Epilepsy
can affect people of any age group. Though brain injury, brain cancer, drug and alcohol misuse
and stroke are some of the reasons for epileptic seizures, the exact reason for convulsions is not
known. Some of the common symptoms which occur before convulsions include, visual loss,
strange feeling, nausea, numbness in body parts, headache and racing thoughts.
Anticonvulsants Market: Drivers and Restraints
Increasing awareness about the anticonvulsants available in the market, patent expiration of
many blockbuster drugs are some of the major factors that are driving the global anticonvulsants
market towards growth. There are now 24 antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) approved for use in
epilepsy in the US by FDA. Moreover, three trends involving consumption of AEDs have become
clinically important and must be considered by all who treat patients with epilepsy.

These trends include issues of generic substitution of AEDs, pharmacogenomics predicting
serious adverse events in certain ethnic populations, and the issue of the suicide risk involving
the entire class of AEDs. While, high costs and unavailability of convenient dosage forms of both
generic and branded anticonvulsants are restraining the growth of novel therapies in the
anticonvulsants market.

Anticonvulsants Market: Overview
Seizures are expected to result in physical, psychological and social repercussions. People with
epilepsy could adhere rigorously to their medication regimes in order to prevent these
deleterious outcomes. Treatment of epileptic seizures has led to the growth of anticonvulsants
market. Barbiturates were the first antiepileptic drugs. These are more effective and tolerable
than bromides. Hydantoins are the first to be known as modern antiepileptic drugs.
Succinimides are an old group of drug which are rarely prescribed nowadays. Consequently with
these antiepileptic or antiseizure drugs, anticonvulsants market is growing immensely leaving a
significant impact on the treatment of epileptic seizures. The antiepileptic drug market is
threatened by generic completion, which has been increasing dramatically in the face of patent
expirations among several of the major branded antiepileptics. However, there have been cases
where generic antiepileptic drugs have not been as efficacious as their branded counterparts
have.
