Official title
Investigation and Treatment of Ocular Motor Disorders: Cross-over Comparison of Gabapentin and Memantine as Treatment for Nystagmus
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Involuntary oscillations of the eyes (nystagmus) impairs vision so that affected patients, who have neurological disorders such as Multiple Sclerosis (MS) , cannot read or watch TV. Two medicines have been reported to suppress nystagmus and improve vision in such patients: gabapentin and memantine. The investigators set out to test which of these two drug was more effective by carrying out a double-blind cross-over study. In this way, we could determine which drug worked best in each patient.
