Paradoxical precipitation of tonic seizures by lorazepam in a child with atypical absence seizures.

F J DiMario1, R R Clancy.   

Abstract

A 10-year-old girl with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome who received intravenous lorazepam for atypical absence status seizures is reported. Tonic seizures occurred immediately and appeared to represent a paradoxical seizure exacerbation. We also review other patients with paradoxical seizure exacerbation by benzodiazepines.
