Optimization of vigabatrin dosage in children with epileptic spasms: A population pharmacokinetic approach.

The population pharmacokinetic model allowed us to identify bodyweight and creatinine clearance as the 2 main factors explaining the observed interindividual variability of vigabatrin. An acceptable exposure range was defined in this study. A target concentration intervention approach using this pharmacokinetic model could be used to avoid overexposure in responder patients.
