Vigabatrin Tablets, 1.5 g bid po, 12 weeks, computerized cognitive behavioral therapy plus contingency management.Subjects proceeded to a 12 week Treatment Phase, including a 2 week dose escalation period, a 9 week maintenance period (3.0 gm/day of vigabatrin) and a 1 week medication taper period. Finally, subjects then proceeded to a 12 week follow-up period. Subjects attended clinic visits 3 times per week (typically on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday) for efficacy and safety assessments and for treatment during the Screening/Baseline Phase and the 12 week Treatment Phase. Subjects returned for follow up visits at Weeks 13, 16, 20 and 24.

POST_HOC outcome

Timeframe: Week 2, 4, 6 & 9-11

Population: Completers were defined as those who attended the scheduled Week 13 visit or the third visit of Week 12 and who also had provided urines during Weeks 11 \& 12.

Using retained urine samples and prior to unblinding, up to 12 specimens/ subject were analyzed for vigabatrin levels. Compliance assessment based on \> or = 70% of urines in subjects assigned to vigabatrin having quantitative levels of vigabatrin indicaticative of taking drug within the last 24 hours of clinic visit.
