Antidepressant drugs, convulsions and epilepsy.

A Richens, S Nawishy, M Trimble.   

Abstract

1 Evidence concerning the convulsant effects of non-monoamine oxidase inhibitor antidepressant drugs has been reviewed. 2 Mianserin is convulsant in therapeutic doses but seizures have not been reported following overdose. 3 The convulsant effects of mianserin are probably no greater than for other non-monoamine oxidase inhibitor antidepressant drugs. 4 Enzyme-inducing anti-epileptic drugs can reduce the peak plasma concentration of mianserin and shorten its elimination half-life, probably by inducing its metabolism.
