  • Effects on Electrocardiogram
  • There is no indication of a QT/QTc prolonging effect of vigabatrin in single doses up to 6 g. In a randomized, placebo-controlled, crossover study, 58 healthy subjects were administered a single oral dose of vigabatrin (3 g and 6 g) and placebo. Peak concentrations for 6 g vigabatrin were approximately 2-fold higher than the peak concentrations following the 3 g single oral dose.
