In the current study, we have used the haplotype-tagging single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) to determine associations between genetic variants in SCN1A and treatment response in 519 Caucasian patients with known response status for epilepsy treated with antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) with sodium channel blocking effects.
