Phenytoin-carbamazepine cross-sensitivity.

S B Reents1, W E Luginbuhl, S M Davis.   

Abstract

A case of phenytoin-carbamazepine cross-sensitivity is presented. Similar signs and symptoms occurred during administration of both drugs. A common metabolic intermediate is offered as a possible explanation of the mechanism. Clinicians should be careful when choosing alternatives in patients with hypersensitivity reactions to anticonvulsants. Valproic acid may be the safest choice in this setting.
