TLDR
It is found that 6 weeks of physical training or creatine supplementation decreased the duration of PTZ-induced seizures in adult male Wistar rats, and evidence is provided that combination between creatine supplementation and physical exercise may be a useful strategy in the treatment of convulsive disorders.

Creatine as an antioxidant

TL;DR: A wide number of research articles indicate that Cr is capable of exerting multiple, non-energy related, effects on diverse and relevant cellular targets, and the antioxidant activity of Cr emerges as an additional mechanism which is likely to play a supportive role in the Cr-cytoprotection paradigm.

Creatine biosynthesis and transport in health and disease.

TL;DR: This review encompasses all aspects of creatine by providing an illustrated metabolic account for brain and body creatine in health and disease, an algorithm to diagnose metabolic and gene bases of primary and secondary creatine deficiencies, and a metabolic exploration by (1)H-MRS assessment of cerebral creatine levels and response to therapeutic measures.

Experimental and clinical findings from physical exercise as complementary therapy for epilepsy.

TL;DR: Considering that exercise can exert beneficial actions such as reduction of seizure susceptibility, reduction of anxiety and depression, and consequently, improvement of quality of life of individuals with epilepsy, exercise can be a potential candidate as non-pharmacological treatment of epilepsy.
