Abstract

This chapter will review the in vitro laboratory as well as animal and clinical studies of the comparative effect of antipsychotic medications on the seizure threshold. It will critically examine current theories relating antipsychotic medications and seizure induction. Finally, it will provide guidelines for the clinical applications of this literature to treatment of both epileptic and non-epileptic populations.
