Unfortunately there is no information in the search results about Xcpristart specifically. However, there are a few key points about medications for seizures in general: The choice of medication depends on factors like the seizure type, age of onset, medical history, etc. Over half of infants may achieve seizure control with medications like phenobarbitone and phenytoin, but side effects increase at higher doses. For some people with treatment-resistant epilepsy, alternative therapies like the ketogenic diet may help reduce seizures. If medications are not working, surgery may be an option. It's important to talk to your doctor to understand all the treatment options available.
