The purpose of the proposed investigation is to carry out a pilot study of add-on perampanel (Fycompa) in women with perimenstural (C1) catamenial epilepsy. Perampanel, a noncompetitive AMPA receptor antagonist, is uniquely positioned to decrease progesterone receptor mediated excitotoxicity. This mechanism of action would allow a novel use of perampanel as an effective treatment of C1 catamenial epilepsy.
