Lacosamide is a highly selective neuronal voltage-gated sodium channel modulator primarily used as an antiepileptic drug to treat partial-onset seizures, as well as in the management of neuropathic pain. It is also studied for its potential in treating bipolar disorder and other neurological conditions. This white to off-white crystalline powder has a CAS number of 175481-36-4, a molecular formula of C13H18N2O3, and a molecular weight of 250.29 g/mol. It must be stored at -15 to -20°C and carries a **Danger** signal word due to its hazardous properties. Molekula supplies lacosamide from research to bulk quantities with full documentation and ISO 9001:2015 traceability.
