Inhibition of peak transient and resurgent currents by sodium channel inhibitors

The peak transient current was measured at a test potential of +20 mV obtained from an I/V recording. The relative resurgent current amplitudes were calculated by dividing the peak resurgent current by the peak transient current and are represented as a percentage of the peak transient current.
