ABSTRACT: Antiepileptic drugs
(AEDs), have demonstrated efficacy treating a number of acute conditions, encompassing
a broad range of symptoms and syndromes, in addition to being first-line
treatment for epilepsy. Clinically, since their inception, AEDs have been used
off-label for acute and chronic medical conditions, both as primary and as adjuvant
therapies. In this review, we describe the observed clinical effectiveness of
AEDs across a set of commonly encountered acute conditions in the general
hospital: traumatic brain injury, pain, alcohol withdrawal. In describing the
individual benefits and usages of specific agents, the applicability of these
agents to other common neuropsychiatric conditions may be further explored.
