Pregabalin-associated acute psychosis and epileptiform EEG-changes
2006
Pregabalin is a novel anticonvulsive and analgesic drug that has been marketed in Europe for more than a year. The typical side effects are dizziness, somnolence and weight gain. We present a patient who, after unintended rapid up-titration of pregabalin, experienced psychotic symptoms associated with rhythmic EEG-changes resolving completely after discontinuation of pregabalin and benzodiazepine administration.
