Abstract
This study presents efficacy and safety results of a phase 3, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of the anticonvulsant drug lacosamide in patients with painful diabetic neuropathy. Lacosamide treatment at a dose of 400 mg/day reduced diabetic neuropathic pain with a favorable safety and tolerability profile that may be suitable for patients with diabetes.
