[Clinical picture and dynamics of neurologic complications of drug therapy in epilepsy].

The authors have investigated the neurological complications in 108 epileptic patients treated for many years with anticonvulsants. The early diagnostic criteria were determined and the course of clinical manifestations described. The principles of treatment of the disease were grounded in terms of pathogenic diversity of its complications.
