Application

Ethosuximide is primarily used as an anticonvulsant medication for the treatment of absence (petit mal) seizures. It functions by inhibiting T-type calcium channels in the thalamus, thereby stabilizing neuronal activity. Researchers also employ ethosuximide in neuropharmacology studies to investigate seizure mechanisms and antiepileptic drug efficacy. Its well-characterized pharmacokinetics make it a valuable tool for in vitro and in vivo experimental models.
