Open-label study drug LCM (OLL) or prescribed oral LCM dose (RxL) must be stable for at least 3 days prior to first LCM infusion; OR,
Subject is an ILL subject and is on a stable dosage regimen of at least 1 antiepileptic drug (AED). The daily dosage regimen of concomitant AED therapy must be kept constant for a period of at least 2 weeks prior to Screening.

For prescription lacosamide (RxL) and initiating intravenous lacosamide (IIL) subjects, enrollment in EP0060 is not permitted if any of the following additional criteria are met:
