Association of interictal epileptiform discharges and serum concentration of levetiracetam and lamotrigine by Johannes D. Lang, Alexander Willno, Caroline Reindl, Tamara Welte, Jenny Stritzelberger, Stephanie Gollwitzer, Katrin Walther, Hajo Hamer

“…BackgroundInterictal epileptiform discharges (IEDs) are an electrographic biomarker of epilepsy. Despite their crucial role in diagnosing epilepsy, heterogeneous findings exist on the mechanisms underlying their occurrence and the effects of anti-seizure medications (ASMs) on IEDs.MethodsWe conducted a study to investigate the association between IED frequency and the serum concentration of two commonly used ASMs, levetiracetam (LEV) and lamotrigine (LTG). …”
