COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF ANTIEPILEPTIC DRUGS EFFECT ON THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM

Abstract

Aim: to evaluate the effect of antiepileptics on the central nervous system (CNS) in children and adults.Material and methods. The treatment of 428 patients with epilepsy, 301 (70.3%) under 18 years old, 127 (29.7%) over 18 years old, 195 - males (45.6%), 233 (54.4%) - females was analyzed.Results. 359 adverse drug reactions (ADRs) were recorded in 223 patients (52.1%). ADRs were registered in 86/223 (38.6%)men and in 37/223 (61.4%) women, and 100/359 (28%) ADRs concerned the effect on CNS. The most significant among them were drowsiness, dizziness, cognitive-behavioral impairment, diplopia. ADR associated with CNS damage was most often detected with carbamazepine and oxcarbazepine (45 and 44%), lamotrigine and topiramate (33 and 28% of cases, respectively). Valproate (19%)and levetiracetam (18%) also effected on the CNS.Conclusions. In 1/3 of cases, antiepileptic ADRs are associated with the CNS effect, often due to the use of carbamazepine, the least - with levetiracetam.
