Product Description
Topiramate is an anticonvulsant. Antagonizes GluK1 (formerly GluR5) kainate receptors (IC50 = 0.46 μM), acts as a positive allosteric modulator of GABAA receptor-mediated currents, inhibits Nav channels (IC50 = 48.9 μM) and inhibits L-type Ca2+ channels. Also inhibits carbonic anhydrase (CA) (Ki values are 0.1 and 0.2 μM at rat CA II and CA IV respectively), which lowers intracellular neuronal pH.
Please refer to IUPHAR Guide to Pharmacology for the most recent naming conventions.
