Perampanel, sold under the brand name Fycompa, is an anti-epileptic medication developed by Eisai Co. that is used in addition to other drugs to treat partial seizures and generalized tonic-clonic seizures for people older than twelve years.[8] It was first approved in 2012, and as of 2016[update], its optimal role in the treatment of epilepsy relative to other drugs was not clear.[10] It was the first antiepileptic drug in the class of selective non-competitive antagonist of AMPA receptors.[11]
The drug label has a black box warning that the drug may cause serious psychiatric and behavioral changes; it may cause homicidal or suicidal thoughts.[8] Other side effects have included dizziness, somnolence, vertigo, aggression, anger, loss of coordination, blurred vision, irritability, and slurred speech.[8] Perampanel reduced the effectiveness of levonorgestrel oral contraceptives by about 40%.[8] Women who may get pregnant should not take it as studies in animals show it may harm a fetus.[12] Perampanel is liable to be abused; very high doses produced euphoria responses similar to ketamine.[8] It is designated as a Schedule III controlled substance by the Drug Enforcement Administration.[8]
As of August 2016 perampanel had been studied and development discontinued in migraine, multiple sclerosis, neuropathic pain, and Parkinson's disease.[13]
