Özet
Objective This study aimed to investigate the role of levetiracetam (LEV) and gabapentin (GBP) on mechanical and thermal pain thresholds, as well as n-acetylcysteine (NAC) as an adjuvant, in the pentylenetetrazol (PTZ)-induced post-traumatic epilepsy (PTE) model after mild-traumatic brain injury (TBI) in male Sprague-Dawley rats. Methods Animals were randomly divided into 7 groups (Control, PTE, PTE+LEV, PTE+GBP, PTE+NAC, PTE+LEV+NAC and PTE+GBP+NAC). Rats received 50 mg kg −1 LEV, 100 mg kg −1 GBP, and combinations of these antiepileptics with 100 mg kg −1 NAC for 14 days after TBI. Results While the thermal pain threshold decreased significantly in the PTE group ( P < 0.05), it increased in the PTE+LEV, PTE+GBP, and …
