摘要

Seizures are not uncommon in renal transplant patients.The common aetiologies are metabolic disturbance associated with renal failure,immunosuppression and associated complications and infections.Their management can be challenging because of altered pharmacokinetics of antiepileptic drugs(AEDs)and their removal by dialysis.A practical approach to the management of seizure in renal transplant patients is discussed.This review highlights the guidelines for use of various AEDs in renal transplants.
