Description Fampridine is a potassium channel blocker that has been shown to suppress downbeat nystagmus effectively. Its effect upon other eye movement abnormalities is largely unknown. We sought to evaluate the immediate and late effects of sustained-release fampridine 10 mg twice a day upon eye movement abnormalities in MS patients with gait impairment and to ascertain the utility of fampridine's oculomotor response in predicting gait response.
