Study to Evaluate Pharmacokinetics and Tolerability of Multiple Doses of Eslicarbazepine Acetate and Oxcarbazepine

December 12, 2014 updated by: Bial - Portela C S.A.

A Phase I, Single Centre, Open, Randomised, Parallel Study to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetics and Tolerability of Multiple Doses of Eslicarbazepine Acetate and Oxcarbazepine in Healthy Subject

This purpose of this study is to measure the concentrations of two anti-epileptic drugs (Eslicarbazepine acetate and oxcarbazepine) and their metabolites in the cerebrospinal fluid and blood plasma of healthy subjects and also to assess how these drugs are tolerated.
