Extended-release valproate effectively reduced seizures and improved quality of life in epilepsy patients over 6 months, with some side effects.

Blocking neurosteroid production can lead to more seizures and faster epilepsy onset in rats.

Neurosteroids show promise for treating epilepsy and more research is needed.

Combining mood stabilizers with antipsychotics is more effective for treating children with bipolar disorder than using mood stabilizers alone.
