Article Synopsis
- Antiepileptic drugs can impact cholesterol and triglyceride levels in people with epilepsy.
- A study measured these serum levels in 103 epileptic patients on monotherapy and compared them to 103 matched controls, revealing varied effects from different drugs.
- It was found that patients on carbamazepine had higher cholesterol levels, while those on valproate had lower levels, suggesting the need for monitoring and potential dietary changes for patients on carbamazepine and phenytoin.
