Seizures associated with ertapenem use in patients with CNS disorders and renal insufficiency.

Alberto E Fica1, Nancy J Abusada.   

Abstract

Three patients presented seizures during ertapenem therapy. They were classified as probably-related in 1 case and as possible-related in the others. Convulsions appeared after 1 week of therapy at usual doses with 1 or 2 events, and were observed only among patients with CNS disorders and renal insufficiency.
