Toxin-Induced Seizures Adapted from "Toxin-Induced Seizures" in Neurologic Clinics, November 2020.

New toxins are constantly emerging within society. We review common toxins that cause seizure, their mechanisms, associated toxidromes, and treatments. Stimulants, cholinergic agents, gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) antagonists, glutamate agonists, histamine and adenosine antagonists, and withdrawal states are highlighted.
