This review of randomised controlled trials shows that vigabatrin can reduce seizure frequency in people with drug-resistant partial epilepsy. Short-term follow up of patients shows some side effects are associated with its use. Further analysis of longer term observational studies is required to evaluate how likely patients are to develop visual field defects, and whether such side effects are associated with dose and duration of drug use.
