id="_Methsuximide_OVERVIEW_">OVERVIEW</h2><div id="Methsuximide.Introduction"><h3>Introduction</h3><p>Methsuximide is a succinimide-based anticonvulsant similar to ethosuximide that is used for absence (petit mal) seizures in both adults and children. Methsuximide was associated with hepatic injury in experimental animals, but has not been linked to serum enzyme elevations during treatment or to cases of clinically apparent liver injury with jaundice.</p></div><div id="Methsuximide.Background"><h3>Background</h3><p>Methsuximide (meth sux&#x02019; i mide: also called mesuximide) is a succinimide derivative and anticonvulsant that is used to treat absence (petit mal) seizures. The succinimide anticonvulsants reduce low threshold calcium currents in thalamic neurons, and suppress the paroxysmal spike and wave activity that is associated with lapses of consciousness that occur with absence seizures. Methsuximide was first approved in 1957 for use alone or in combination with other agents to treat absence seizures. Methsuximide is no longer in common use, having been replaced by ethosuximide, the most active of the succinimide anticonvulsants and first line therapy for petit mal epilepsy. Nevertheless, methsuximide is still available, generically and under the brand name Celontin as capsules of 150 and 300 mg. The recommended initial dose in adults and children above the age of 6 years is 300 mg once daily, with gradual dose escalation weekly based upon tolerance and effect to a maximum of 1200 mg daily. Common side effects include dizziness, somnolence, ataxia, fatigue, irritability, anorexia and epigastric discomfort.</p></div><div id="Methsuximide.Hepatotoxicity"><h3>Hepatotoxicity</h3><p>Prospective studies suggest that chronic methsuximide therapy is not accompanied by significant elevations in serum aminotransferase levels, although it has been shown to have hepatotoxicity in animals. Clinically apparent hepatotoxicity from methsuximide has not been reported, although hypersensitivity reactions with fever and rash are not uncommon (1% to 5%). The product label for methsuximide warns of hepatic dysfunction and recommends periodic liver function studies. Nevertheless, clinically apparent liver injury from methsuximide must be very rare, if it occurs at all.</p><p>Likelihood score: E* (unproven but suspected rare cause of clinically apparent liver injury).</p></div><div id="Methsuximide.Mechanism_of_Injury"><h3>Mechanism of Injury</h3><p>Methsuximide is metabolized to inactive intermediates in the liver via the cytochrome P450 system (CYP 3A4) and is susceptible to many drug-drug interactions.</p></div><div id="Methsuximide.Outcome_and_Management"><h3>Outcome and Management</h3><p>While there have been no reported instances of liver injury from methsuximide, monitoring for liver tests is recommended. While there may be cross reactivity to hypersensitivity reactions or liver injury between methsuximide and ethosuximide, there is no evidence of cross reactivity with the aromatic anticonvulsants.</p><p>Drug Class: <a href="/books/n/livertox/Anticonvulsants/?report=reader">Anticonvulsants</a></p></div></div><div id="Methsuximide.PRODUCT_INFORMATION"><h2 id="_Methsuximide_PRODUCT_INFORMATION_">PRODUCT INFORMATION</h2><div id="Methsuximide.BPI" class="box boxed-text-box whole_rhythm hide-overflow"><p>
