Preclinical tissue distribution and metabolic correlations of vigabatrin, an antiepileptic drug associated with potential use‐limiting visual field defects

Vigabatrin (VGB; (S)‐(+)/(R)‐(‐) 4‐aminohex‐5‐enoic acid), an antiepileptic irreversibly inactivating GABA transaminase (GABA‐T), manifests use‐limiting ocular toxicity. Hypothesizing that the active S enantiomer of VGB would preferentially accumulate in eye and visual cortex (VC) as one potential m...
