Official Title  ICMJE A DOUBLE-BLIND, PLACEBO-CONTROLLED, PARALLEL-GROUP, MULTICENTER STUDY OF THE EFFICACY AND SAFETY OF PREGABALIN AS ADJUNCTIVE THERAPY IN CHILDREN 4 -16 YEARS OF AGE WITH PARTIAL ONSET SEIZURES
Brief Summary Study A0081041 is a double blind, placebo controlled, randomized, parallel group, multicenter study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of two dose levels of pregabalin administered in equally divided daily doses, in either capsule or oral liquid formulation, as adjunctive therapy in pediatric subjects 4 to 16 years of age with partial onset seizures.
