Temporal lobe epilepsy in children: etiology in a cohort with new-onset seizures.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:To assess pharmacokinetics and safety of diazepam nasal spray (NRL-1; VALTOCO®) in pediatric and adult patients with epilepsy in seizure and nonseizure states. METHODS:A single dose of diazepam nasal spray (5, 10, 15, or 20 mg based on weight) was administered during each of two conditions (ictal/peri-ictal ...
