Downbeat nystagmus due to anticonvulsant toxicity.

J N Alpert.   

Abstract

Isolated downbeat nystagmus was observed in 2 patients on multiple anticonvulsant regimens. The nystagmus disappeared when phenytoin dosage was reduced. Electrooculographic analysis revealed impaired downward tracking, supporting the concept of "pursuit" nystagmus.
