research Adverse Cutaneous Reactions to Mood Stabilizers
Mood stabilizers can cause serious skin reactions; careful monitoring and immediate treatment are crucial.
research The anticonvulsant effects of progesterone and its metabolites
5alpha-DHP may be a safe, effective treatment for certain seizures without causing sedation.
research Hair loss with levetiracetam in five patients with epilepsy
Levetiracetam may cause hair loss, which can potentially reverse with lower doses or stopping the drug.
research Progesterone and its Metabolites: Anticonvulsant and Behavioral Studies
Progesterone and its metabolites can prevent seizures without major side effects.
research Serum drug level-related sodium valproate-induced hair loss
High levels of the seizure medication sodium valproate can cause hair loss.
research Finasteride may increase risk of seizures
research Glia-derived steroids modulate epileptogenesis in a model of temporal lobe epilepsy
Neurosteroids from glia cells help control seizure development in epilepsy.

Valproate can cause hair problems, but there are ways to manage them.
research Finasteride inhibits the disease-modifying activity of progesterone in the hippocampus kindling model of epileptogenesis
Finasteride worsens seizures in epilepsy rats and speeds up epileptogenesis in mice.
research Ferulic Acid Inhibits Catamenial Epilepsy Through Modulation of Female Hormones
Ferulic acid can reduce seizures and depression-like behaviors in catamenial epilepsy by balancing hormones and brain enzyme activity.
research Short-Term Side Effects of Low Dose Valproate Monotherapy in Epileptic Children: A Prospective Study.
Low dose valproate in epileptic children mainly causes weight gain and other non-life-threatening side effects.
research Clinical comparison of extended-release divalproex versus delayed-release divalproex: pooled data analyses from nine trials
Extended-release divalproex is better tolerated and more effective for seizures and psychiatric symptoms than delayed-release divalproex, but doesn't reduce hair loss.
research Plasticity of GABAergic Inhibition
Targeting specific GABA receptors may help treat epilepsy and postpartum depression.
research Benzothiazepines, diltiazem and JTV-519, exert an anxiolytic-like effect via neurosteroid biosynthesis in mice
Benzothiazepines like diltiazem reduce anxiety in mice by making neurosteroids.
research Effects of anticonvulsant drugs on chromosomes.
Anticonvulsant drugs may cause temporary chromosomal abnormalities.
research Carbamazepine-Induced Hair Loss
Carbamazepine can cause hair loss, which may reverse when the medication is stopped.

Monitoring new epilepsy drugs after they're sold is crucial to find rare and long-term side effects that initial tests might miss.
research Hair loss in psychopharmacology.
Some psychiatric medications can cause hair loss, but stopping or reducing the dose usually reverses it.
research Neurosteroids as Endogenous Regulators of Seizure Susceptibility
Stress increases neurosteroids that help prevent seizures.
research GABAAreceptor modulation by neurosteroids in models of temporal lobe epilepsies
Neurosteroids change how GABA_A receptors work in the brain, which could be important for treating temporal lobe epilepsy.
research The Influence of Valproic Acid and Carbamazepine Treatment on Serum Biotin and Zinc Levels and on Biotinidase Activity
Valproic acid and carbamazepine do not change biotin or biotinidase levels but may lower zinc levels, still within normal range.
