Abstract
Carbamazepine (CBZ) therapy was associated with development of absence seizures in 4 adults with generalized epilepsy. Two patients had new appearance of absence seizures and 2 patients had recrudescence of remote absence seizures. The seizures abated after discontinuation of CBZ therapy or addition of ethosuximide (ESM) in 1 patient intolerant of valproate (VPA).
