Preferred Label : acetazolamide;
MeSH definition : One of the CARBONIC ANHYDRASE INHIBITORS that is sometimes effective against absence
seizures. It is sometimes useful also as an adjunct in the treatment of tonic-clonic,
myoclonic, and atonic seizures, particularly in women whose seizures occur or are
exacerbated at specific times in the menstrual cycle. However, its usefulness is transient
often because of rapid development of tolerance. Its antiepileptic effect may be due
to its inhibitory effect on brain carbonic anhydrase, which leads to an increased
transneuronal chloride gradient, increased chloride current, and increased inhibition.
