Abstract Protective (antiseizure) effects of 4-butyl-5-[(4-chloro-2-methylphenoxy)-methyl]-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thione (TPL-16) and acute neurotoxic effects were determined in the tonic-clonic seizure model and rotarod test in mice. The interaction profile of four classic antiepileptic drugs (carbamazepine, phenobarbital, phenytoin and valproate) with TPL-16 was also determined in the tonic-clonic seizure model in mice. The protective effects of TPL-16 from tonic-clonic seizures (as ­ED50 values) and acute neurotoxic effects of TPL-16 (as T ­ D50 values) were determined in 4 pretreatment times (15, 30, 60 and 120 min after its i.p. administration), in adult male albino Swiss mice. The interaction profile of TPL-16 with carbamazepine, phenobarbital, phenytoin and valproate in the tonic-clonic seizure model was determined with isobolographic analysis. Total concentrations of carbamazepine, phenobarbital, phenytoin and valproate were measured in the mouse brain homogenates. The candidate for novel antiepileptic drug (TPL-16) administered separately 15 min before experiments, has a beneficial profile with protective index (as ratio of ­TD50 and ­ED50 values) amounting to 5.58. The combination of TPL-16 with valproate produced synergistic interaction in the tonic-clonic seizure model in mice. The combinations of TPL-16 with carbamazepine, phenobarbital and phenytoin produced additive interaction in terms of protection from tonic-clonic seizures in mice. None of the total brain concentrations of classic AEDs were changed significantly after TPL-16 administration in mice. Synergistic interaction for TPL-16 with valproate and the additive interaction for TPL-16 with carbamazepine, phenobarbital and phenytoin in the tonic-clonic seizures in mice allows for recommending TPL-16 as the promising drug for further experimental and clinical testing.
