A tiny proportion of them are even labelled a rare illness (ie: one affecting less than 200,000 people in the United States or less than 5 out of 10,000 people in the European Union). For these patients, two problems in their management arise: In children, seizures affect an immature brain and can impact its development. It is therefore essential to treat them so that brain development continues as normally as possible. The rarity of these syndromes does not encourage the pharmaceutical industry to invest in research. Therefore, there are few drugs available. However, a few target syndromes with a particularly unfavourable diagnosis. This work outlines 6 molecules in detail that are specifically used in epileptic encephalopathies. Every aspect of these molecules is discussed, including drug development, indication, efficacy, cost, etc. Drafted by international experts in the field of epileptology, it provides all the necessary information on orphan drugs and their clinical use. 410 0$aTopics in Epilepsy 606 $aEpilepsy -- Treatment 606 $aBrain Diseases 606 $aCentral Nervous System Agents 606 $aDrug Industry 606 $aIndustry 606 $aTherapeutic Uses 606 $aCentral Nervous System Diseases 606 $aNervous System Diseases 606 $aTechnology, Industry, and Agriculture 606 $aPharmacologic Actions 606 $aChemical Actions and Uses 606 $aDisease 606 $aAnticonvulsants 606 $aEpilepsy 606 $aOrphan Drug Production 615 4$aEpilepsy -- Treatment. 615 2$aBrain Diseases. 615 2$aCentral Nervous System Agents. 615 2$aDrug Industry. 615 2$aIndustry. 615 2$aTherapeutic Uses. 615 2$aCentral Nervous System Diseases. 615 2$aNervous System Diseases. 615 2$aTechnology, Industry, and Agriculture. 615 2$aPharmacologic Actions. 615 2$aChemical Actions and Uses. 615 2$aDisease. 615 2$aAnticonvulsants. 615 2$aEpilepsy. 615 2$aOrphan Drug Production. 676 $a616.853 700 $aNikanorova$b Marina$01796203 701 $aJohannessen$b S.
