The cost-effectiveness of newer drugs as add-on therapy for children with focal epilepsies
Seizure - European Journal of Epilepsy, 04/24/07
Emma J. Frew, et al. - Epilepsies in children are complex diseases. Guidelines are needed on the appropriate use of newer versus older anti-epileptic drugs (AEDs). This paper presents an individual patient-sampling model to assess the cost-effectiveness of using newer AEDs as add-on therapy in line with UK prescribing guidance...Conclusions: To develop guidelines on the appropriate use of newer AEDs, better information is required from randomised controlled trials as there is insufficient data available in the public domain to accurately estimate the nature of the trade off between older versus newer AEDs
