Study Summary

The reason for this study is to understand if people with certain genes are predisposed to develop severe skin reactions after they are administered Eslicarbazepine Acetate. Currently there is no information that suggests that certain individuals who use Eslicarbazepine Acetate are predisposed to develop severe skin reactions. However, previous research has shown that seizure medicines like carbamazepine (Tegretol®) and oxcarbazepine (Trileptal®, Oxtellar XR®) are more likely to cause severe drug related skin reactions in some people of Asian ancestry who have specific genes. These are genes found in an area of chromosomes called the Major Histocompatibility Complex. This association is called a genetic risk factor. The study objective is to compare information that is obtained from individuals with a history of seizure disorders who develop severe skin reactions while using Eslicarbazepine Acetate to a group of patients who also have a history of seizure disorders and do not have a history of a severe skin reaction after using Eslicarbazepine Acetate.
