- Abstract
- Following its approval in Japan, zonisamide (Excegran ) has been accepted as a new
antiepileptic drug having broad spectrum activity. However, it does not have marketing
approval in the US. Clinical trials were suspended in the US because of the high incidence
of renal stone development (3.7%). We experienced a case of renal calculus which was
identified during the course of zonisamide treatment.
We believe this is the first case report of renal stone development suspecting the causal
relation to the zonisamide treatment in Korea.
Key Words: Zonisamide, renal calculi, epilepsy
