The choice of an antiepileptic drug depends firstly on its efficacy in specific seizure types and epilepsies. However, it is imperative to consider whether possible adverse events will outweigh any benefits. The advantages and disadvantages of vigabatrin, lamotrigine, gabapentin, topiramate, tiagabine and felbamate are considered in some detail, and oxcarbazepine, stiripentol, remacemide, zonisamide and levetiracetam more briefly. Vigabatrin is effective for partial seizures and infantile spasms, but visual field defects are limiting its use. Lamotrigine has a wide spectrum, needs to be prescribed with care. Gabapentin is unlikely to cause adverse effects, but has relatively poor efficacy. Topiramate is widely effective, but can be poorly tolerated. Tiagabine is relatively untried in childhood epilepsies. The use of felbamate is restricted to severe refractory epilepsies. Stiripentol can be effective in severe myoclonic epilepsy in infancy. Zonisamide has a special place in the progressive myoclonus epilepsies. Levetiracetam, remacemide and oxcarbazepine have been used mainly for partial seizures: further studies of their roles in other circumstances are required.

Disadvantages: \n\nA few accidental poisonings worldwide every years.\n\nA few hundred thousand individual animals poisoned, none threatened.\n\nAdvantages: \n\nEntirely responsible for our ability to feed the world. Without pesticides we could not produce enough food to feed even 1/10th of the people alive today. The rest would starve because crops would be eaten by insects.\n\nEntirely resposnible for controlling insect born diseases. Without pesticides millions would die every DAY from diseases such as malaria, typhoid and West Nile Virus.\n\nEnables us to maintain huge wilderness reserves. Without pesticides we would have to clear all wilderness areas for food production and as a result kill all wild animals and plants.\n\n\nYeah, I think we can probably say the benefits outweigh the disadvantages, since without pesticides we would have the same disadvantages multiplied a thousand fold and none of the advantages.

This is a complex question.  It depends on why you are taking the drugs.  The same drug that could save your life in an emergency could kill you if taken at the wrong time.\n\nMany recreational drugs might feel good or give you a novel experience, but could have long-term damaging effects.\n\nIt all depends.  \n\nSide note: There is some tentative evidence that marijuana can stimulate the growth of new brain cells.
