In addition, LTG contributes to a lower risk of postoperative pulmonary complications.

Results: LTG was effective in all groups of epileptic patients studied.

Fifty-seven percent of patients remained treated with LTG after four years of follow-up.

One hundred patients were treated with LTG in a 5-year period.

The findings suggest that LTG may be associated with an ocular vascular abnormality.

Steady-state trough concentration of LTG was measured by a high-performance liquid chromatography method.

Conclusions: LTG is a safe an effective drug in epilepsy.

Efficacy was evaluated comparing seizure frequency in a 6-month period before and after LTG.

Side effects were mild, but frequent; only four patients discontinued LTG because of adverse effects.

Background: LTG is a new antiepileptic drug that is nowadays very often used in epileptic patients.

In addition to block of sodium channels, LTG may act on other targets to exert its antiepileptic effect.

Regarding oncological results, LTG is more effective for lymph node dissection and has a comparable long-term prognosis as OTG.

'LTG' means 'Lieutenant General,' FYI, so he's no slouch.

Nicotine dose-response curves showed that in the presence of LTG, the nicotine-induced maximal current was reduced, suggesting a noncompetitive inhibition.

These findings suggest that LTG inhibits human neuronal a4β2-nAChR function through an open-channel blocking mechanism.
