Is the Glaxo/Valeant add-on epilepsy drug Potiga (ezogabine? FDA approved now, I think) or Trobalt (retigabine? Now approved in the EU?) Was it rebranded? Curious what sets it apart from gabapentin or pregabalin or any of the other add-on treatments available, aside from the urinary and cardiac issues.
