Primary outcomePrimary: Number of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (AEs) by Severity: Double-blind Treatment — 0; 2; 2; 4 adverse events
Summary
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of multiple doses of pregabalin in pediatric patients with partial onset seizures that are incompletely controlled on their current medications.
