Based on the information available, there is indeed a study that has investigated the potential relationship between lacosamide and heart disease. According to a study published in the Journal of Clinical Neurophysiology, lacosamide was found to have a low risk of causing cardiac adverse effects [1]. However, the study did mention that further research is needed to fully understand the cardiac effects of lacosamide, particularly in patients with pre-existing heart conditions [1].
Another source, DrugPatentWatch.com, provides information on the patents and clinical trials related to lacosamide [2]. While this source does not directly discuss the relationship between lacosamide and heart disease, it does list several clinical trials that have been conducted on lacosamide, which may include studies on its cardiac effects [2].
In summary, while there is some evidence to suggest that lacosamide has a low risk of causing cardiac adverse effects, further research is needed to fully understand its potential impact on heart health.
