Epilepsy is often controlled by current medications. For some children, however, these medicines do not fully control their seizures. Or, these medicines may cause side effects. In this study we want to find out if a medicine (pregabalin) helps reduce partial onset seizures in children. If your child already takes antiepileptic drugs but still has seizures, we will give pregabalin as an add-on medication. Some children may receive a pill without an active drug (a placebo). We can then determine if adding pregabalin reduced seizures.
