This article reviews adverse drug reactions, emphasizes methods of prevention, and encourages reporting to the FDA's medWatch program, but presents no new study findings.

In this study, behavioral disturbances were commonly observed with levetiracetam, while somnolence was frequently reported with oxcarbazepine among patients with refractory epilepsy.

This article provides information about the University of Bologna's departments involved and includes contact details for the lead author, but it presents no research findings.

This study suggests that 5alpha-dihydroprogesterone could be an effective, non-sedative anticonvulsant for drug-resistant complex partial seizures, as observed in a rat model.

This review discusses fixed drug eruption (FDE) potentially linked to finasteride and emphasizes dermatologists' need to recognize its possible occurrence due to the drug's widespread use, but reports no new clinical results.

This case report describes a cat that developed alopecia and hyperactivity after ingesting valproic acid from contaminated household food, with symptoms resolving after the drug was removed.

This case report diagnosed variegate porphyria in a 33-year-old woman based on significant laboratory abnormalities, but with clinical features resembling porphyria cutanea tarda.

This review found that antiseizure medications, particularly phenytoin and valproate, are associated with cosmetic side effects like gingival hyperplasia, hirsutism, acne, and hair loss.

This study found that using valproic acid during radiotherapy for glioma was associated with delayed hair loss and improved survival outcomes.

Applying valproic acid on the scalp increased hair growth in men with hair loss.

This case report describes successful treatment of valproate-induced hyperammonemia in a 79-year-old man using lactulose, marking the first such documented use for this condition.

This study found that sodium valproate nanospanlastics could be an effective and safer method for treating androgenic alopecia, with results comparable to minoxidil but fewer side effects.

In this clinical study, researchers reported that both sodium valproate-loaded nanospanlastics and topical corticosteroids showed comparable modest efficacy in treating patchy alopecia areata, recommending further investigation into sodium valproate's role combined with other therapies.

This study observed a strong overall reduction in the use of CPA/EE in the Netherlands, despite similar proportions of users with acne or other hyperandrogenic conditions before and after the referral procedure.

This abstract details known indications, categories, and potential reactions for various drugs, including anorexiants, estrogens, NSAID analgesics, cardiac glycosides, and migraine preventives, without reporting new clinical results.

This study found that topical valproic acid and 5% minoxidil both significantly increased hair count in patients with female pattern hair loss, suggesting topical valproic acid as a potential treatment option.

In this large multicenter study, severe hair loss related to psychotropic drug treatment was very rare but occurred more frequently in female patients, with valproic acid showing the highest risk.

The research investigated the effects of antiandrogens on neurodevelopmental milestones in rats exposed to valproic acid during pregnancy, finding that while valproic acid delayed sensorimotor reflexes, it didn't impact physical development milestones, and antiandrogens partially mitigated these delays.

This case report highlights a rare instance of valproate-induced hypertensive urgency in a 2-year-old girl, with improvement after stopping the medication.

The estradiol valerate/dienogest oral contraceptive helps with heavy periods, may improve acne and symptoms in PCOS, and doesn't affect sexual function.

The researchers found that inhibiting soluble epoxide hydrolase, either genetically or pharmacologically, delayed the onset of chemically induced seizures related to GABA antagonism in experimental models.

This study found that valproic acid and crocin, alone or together, significantly increased the expression levels of neurotrophic factors in rat-derived epidermal neural crest stem cells, suggesting therapeutic potential for neurological disorders.

This study discusses levetiracetam's role as an alternative treatment for idiopathic generalized epilepsies, highlighting its potential effectiveness, especially for patients unsuitable for valproate.

This case report suggests that discontinuing finasteride, which may affect neurosteroids synthesis, improved seizure control in a woman with temporal lobe seizures.

This study suggests that the anticonvulsant effects of deoxycorticosterone in young rats may be mediated by its metabolites and interactions with multiple receptors, including mineralocorticoid and progesterone receptors.

This study found that pediatric epilepsy patients on polytherapy experienced more adverse drug reactions compared to those on monotherapy, despite improved seizure control with polytherapy.
