A paradoxical rise of neonatal seizures after treatment with vitamin B6.

A Hammen1, B Wagner, M Berkhoff, F Donati.   

Abstract

We report the case of a newborn with intractable epileptic seizures developing a paradoxical rise of seizure frequency and electroencephalogram alterations after administration of vitamin B6. We have been unable to determine the aetiology of this disorder. In a newborn presenting with drug-resistant epileptic seizures, the first therapeutic option remains the application of intravenous pyridoxine, but the physician should be aware of the risk of an increase in seizure frequency.
