The self-report measure Patient's Global Impression of Change (PGIC) reflects a participant's belief about the efficacy of treatment. It is a 7-point scale depicting a participant's rating of overall improvement where 1 = very much improved, 2 = much improved, 3 = minimally improved, 4 = no change, 5 = minimally worse, 6 = much worse and 7 = very much worse.

The CGI-S is an observer-rated scale that will be used to measure symptom severity. It is a 7-point scale depicting a participants rating of overall improvement. Participants rate their change as 0 = not assessed; 1 = normal, not at all ill; 2 = borderline ill; 3 = mildly ill; 4 = moderately ill; 5 = markedly ill; 6 = severely ill; and 7 = among the most extremely ill participants.

The Quality of Life in Epilepsy - 31 (QOLIE-31) contains 7 multi-item scales that tap the following health concepts: emotional well-being, social functioning, energy/fatigue, cognitive functioning, seizure worry, medication effects, and overall quality of life. A QOLIE-31 overall score is obtained using a weighted average of the multi-item scale scores. The QOLIE-31 also includes a single item that assessed overall health. The QoLIE-31 score range is from 0 to 100 with a higher score indicating a better outcome for quality of life.

The C-SSRS rates an individual's degree of suicidal ideation (SI) on a scale, ranging from "wish to be dead" to "active suicidal ideation with specific plan and intent." The scale identifies SI severity and intensity, which may be indicative of an individual's intent to commit suicide. C-SSRS SI severity subscale ranges from 0 (no SI) to 5 (active SI with plan and intent).

The modified Clinical Institute Withdrawal Assessment - Benzodiazepines (mCIWA-B) is a sensitive instrument to measure withdrawal under conditions where there is a taper of medication (rather than abrupt discontinuation). It consists of 17-items that monitor the type and severity of BZD withdrawal symptoms such as irritability, fatigue, appetite, and sleeplessness. The total score ranges from 1 to 68 with higher scores indicating more severe withdrawal.
