Revert edit 291482867
editThe information in this edit is entirely uncited, and furthermore, the portion pertaining to the drugmaker's intent to "unschedule" the drug could potentially be seen as defamatory since no citation is given. As this might be seen as libelous, I am reverting the edit. Animated Cascade talk 01:40, 28 May 2009 (UTC)
lacosamide chemical nomenclature is wrong to my opinion it should be corrected —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.255.82.34 (talk) 07:11, 31 March 2010 (UTC)
Off Label Use
editThe end of the off label use section begins: "AEDs are often used in the treatment of hepatic and renal disease." It seems the intent of this portion is to note that the drug is removed by treatments for hepatic and renal disease and this needs to be taken into consideration. However, this sentence implies that, somehow, AEDs are beneficial for these diseases. This is NOT true. Some AEDs cause damage to these organs over time. In fact, healthy patients are often given tests to make sure damage from AEDs is detected early. However, most newer AEDs are harmless. But, none, to my knowledge, and the sources given, are beneficial. I'm removing those two sentences.
chemical name
editThis ist not a homoserine derivative, but a methyl ether of serine. --FK1954 (talk) 15:47, 8 October 2015 (UTC)
