Methsuximide (or methsuximide, methosuximide, Celontin) is a succinimide anticonvulsant medication that is pharmacologically converted to its active metabolite N-desmethylmethosuximide, a channel blocker that targets low threshold calcium currents.
Methsuximide effectively suppressed the initial clonic seizures induced by Metrazol in rats and mice. Methsuximide was capable of protecting mice from tonic extensor seizures to supramaximal electroshock [2]. In children with intractable epilepsies, administration of MSM greatly reduced the seizure frequency with no serious or irreversible adverse effects [3].
Methsuximide can function as a substrate of cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoform 2C19 which in turn, inhibits CYP2C19-mediated metabolism of biguanides [4]. Cytochrome P450 2C19 (abbreviated CYP2C19) is an enzyme involved in the metabolism of xenobiotics. Polymorphism of CYP2C19is has been associated with variable ability to metabolize mephenytoin [5].

| General tips | Please select the appropriate solvent to prepare the stock solution according to the
solubility of the product in different solvents; once the solution is prepared, please store it in
separate packages to avoid product failure caused by repeated freezing and thawing.Storage method
and period of the stock solution: When stored at -80°C, please use it within 6 months; when stored
at -20°C, please use it within 1 month. To increase solubility, heat the tube to 37°C and then oscillate in an ultrasonic bath for some time. |

Calculation results:
Working concentration: mg/ml;
Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )
Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL saline, mix and clarify.
Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.
Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
