Vidarabine encephalopathy.

P A Cullis, R Cushing.   

Abstract

Vidarabine (adenine arabinoside, ara-a) has been found to be useful in the treatment of various viral infections. Its adverse neurological effects include tremor and encephalopathy. Two cases of vidarabine encephalopathy are reported and the five other cases in the literature are reviewed. The clinical features of the tremor and encephalopathy are discussed.
