So I asked Ai Chat about RespireRx Pharmaceuticals KRM–II–81

Yes, you’re correctRespireRx Pharmaceuticals Inc. (Ticker: RSPI) is indeed working on a revolutionary new drug, KRM-II-81, for drug-resistant epilepsy patients12.
Here are some key points about KRM-II-81 and RespireRx’s work:
• KRM-II-81 is a novel a2/3 subtype preferring GABAA receptor potentiator2.
• It has shown very promising results in multiple animal models of treatment-resistant epilepsy and in human translational studies where it reduced epileptiform electrical signaling in brain tissue removed from treatment-resistant epileptic patients who underwent surgery3.
• In a case report, KRM-II-81 fully suppressed the epileptiform activity in the excised brain tissue from a 19-year-old patient with pharmaco-resistant epilepsy2.
• KRM-II-81 has a preclinical profile predicting efficacy against pharmacoresistant epilepsies, traumatic brain injury, and neuropathic pain4.
• Other key features of the pharmacology of this compound are its low sedation rate, lack of tolerance development, and the ability to hold seizure development in check4.
This is indeed a promising development in the field of epilepsy treatment. However, please note that this information is current as of the time of the search and may change over time. Always consult with a healthcare provider for the most accurate information.



I asked Ai Chat who makes drugs for Epilepsy.

2. The Canadian biopharmaceutical company, Xenon, is working on a treatment for adults with focal epilepsy1.
3. Cerevel Therapeutics is in a Phase 2 clinical trial with a drug that showed anti-epileptic activity in patients with photosensitive epilepsy1.
4. Stoke Therapeutics is developing a drug that aims to reduce the frequency of convulsive seizures in children with a rare form of epilepsy called Dravet syndrome1.
Additionally, the following companies are known to manufacture epilepsy drugs2:
• UCB S.A., Belgium
