Use of the Modified Atkins Diet in Infantile Spasms — ADIS  

Infantile Spasms Clinical Trial

Official title:
Efficacy and Tolerability of the Modified Atkins Diet in Patients With Infantile Spasms: a Pilot Study.

Clinical Trial Summary

Infantile spasms constitute a type of catastrophic epilepsy syndrome occuring in young children. The ketogenic diet has been shown to be very effective in these children. The modified Atkins diet is a less restrictive option than the ketogenic diet, which has been effective in preliminary studies on refractory epilepsy in children, adolescents and adults. Modified Atkins diet may be of special importance in infants, as proteins are not restricted, hence no problems with growth are expected. Hence this pilot study has been planned to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of the modified Atkins diet in infantile spasms refractory to conventional treatment (ACTH, vigabatrin, and anti-epileptic drugs).
