What does FREDERICK STOCKTON research?

Dr. Stockton studies how older medications, like sulthiame, can help children who have refractory epilepsy, meaning their seizures don't respond well to standard treatments. His research is centered on assessing the effectiveness and safety of these medications in young patients. He aims to understand better how these treatments can lead to significant improvements in seizure control, helping families find relief from the burden of uncontrolled seizures.

Key findings

In a study of 20 children using sulthiame, 55% had a reduction of at least 50% in their seizures.
Two children in the same study became completely seizure-free after starting sulthiame.
Dr. Stockton's research indicates that even older drugs can provide significant benefits for pediatric patients with refractory epilepsy.
