Active Ingredient

Cenobamate is a small molecule with a dual mechanism of action. It is a positive allosteric modulator of subtypes of the γ-aminobutyric acid (GABAA) ion channel, that does not bind to the benzodiazepine binding site. Cenobamate has also been shown to reduce repetitive neuronal firing by enhancing the inactivation of sodium channels and by inhibiting the persistent component of the sodium current.
