Arms Assigned Interventions
Experimental: 1
This is a one arm pharmacokinetic and safety study.
 Drug: intravenous topiramate
Single 25 mg IV dose given in addition to subject's normal morning dose of topiramate
Other Name: Topamax

Detailed Description:

The long-term goal of this research project is to develop a more effective, safer therapy for neonatal seizures. Prior to using an investigational intravenous topiramate formulation in children and neonates, the pharmacokinetics and safety of the formulation must be demonstrated in adults. The immediate aims of this study are to determine the pharmacokinetics and safety of a novel intravenous topiramate formulation. An additional aim is to determine if sex, advancing age, or genotype affects topiramate absorption, distribution, or elimination.
