Efficacy and safety of perampanel for the treatment of epilepsy in adolescents: a meta-analysis

Based on the results in this study, PER showed better efficacy than placebo therapy in children with epilepsy and the AEs were similar in PER group and placebo group. PER showed good efficacy and a low risk of AEs, and might be a promising medication for the treatment of pediatric epilepsy. In the future, well-designed and large-scale RCTs are necessary to validate the present findings.
