TLDR Convulsofin effectively treats primary epilepsy but has some side effects.
The study on Convulsofin, conducted with 220 patients across 14 clinics over six months, confirmed its effectiveness in treating generalized primary epilepsy, allowing for significant monotherapy use. It also showed positive effects on photosensitivity and partial effectiveness in generalized secondary epilepsy and partial epilepsy, suggesting its use as a co-medication for therapy-resistant cases. Notable side effects included decreased thrombocytes, transient increases in serum transaminases, gastrointestinal issues, hair loss, and weight gain.
