Notes: Tiagabine is an inhibitor of GABA transporter 1 (GAT-1; IC50 = 49 nM for GAT-1 expressed in CHO cells).{40522} It inhibits seizures induced by DMCM in mice (ED50 = 1.2 mg/kg, i.p.).{40519} Tiagabine reduces allodynia in a rodent model of neuropathic pain when used at a dose of 72.8 µmol/kg, and it acts synergistically with gabapentin (Item No. 10008346) to delay pain responses in mice in the hot plate test.{40520,40521} Formulations containing tiagabine have been used as adjunctive therapies in the treatment of partial seizures.
