The patients received valproates (127 patients) and topiramate (41 patients) as a monotherapy. It has been shown that the 163G>A (Ala54Thr) polymorphism exerts an influence on effective dose of the valproic acid but not of topiramate. | | Language | rus | | Pub Type(s) | English Abstract Journal Article
