Interesting article, thanks! The meds reviewed are: Clobazam, ezogabine, lacosamide, rufinamide, and vigabatrin.

The article also contains an informative section on the practice of generic substitution of AEDs, which is worth a read.
 
Pharmacogenomics is also a bit interesting. I believe someone just posted in "The Kitchen" about genetic testing to determine meds -- and this is the first I'd heard about testing to determine possible allergic reactions and such.
