Erythromelalgia is a clinical syndrome characterized by erythematous swelling and burning sensation mostly affecting lower extremities evolved by the elevated skin temperature.
These complaints are partly relieved by the cooling with ice-cold water. One familial type of erythromelalgia is known to be caused by a mutation of the SCN9A gene that encodes a voltage-gated sodium channel. Lacosamide is an anti-epileptic medicine, which inactivates that type of the voltage-gated sodium channel, thus, it can be credited with this type of familial erythromelalgia. This study is aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of administration of lacosamide to patients with erythromelalgia caused by SCN9A mutation.

Treatment
Medicine |
The administration of lacosamide is started on 50 mg/day, the dose is increased by 50 mg/ day each week until 200 mg/day for a maintenance dose. It can be increased up to 400 mg / day without side effect. The assessment of efficacy is done after 8 weeks.
