sulthiame
Sign in to saveAlso known as Sultiame
Sultiame, or sulthiame, sold under the brand name Ospolot among others, is a sulfonamide and inhibitor of the enzyme carbonic anhydrase which is used as an anticonvulsant in the treatment of epilepsy. In addition to its use as an antiepileptic medication, recent studies showed promise in reducing sleep disordered breathing and other symptoms of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).

Sultiame, or sulthiame, sold under the brand name Ospolot among others, is a sulfonamide and inhibitor of the enzyme carbonic anhydrase which is used as an anticonvulsant in the treatment of epilepsy. In addition to its use as an antiepileptic medication, recent studies showed promise in reducing sleep disordered breathing and other symptoms of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
==Medical uses== Historically, sultiame has been used to treat partial seizures. In Australia, it is currently registered for behavioural disorders associated with epilepsy; hyperkinetic behaviour; temporal lobe epilepsy; myoclonic seizures; grand mal attacks; and Jacksonian seizures. In contrast to other sulfonamide drugs, sultiame is devoid of antibacterial activity.
