abstract="Topiramate (Topamax) is an anti-epileptic medication for which acute toxicity is infrequently reported. A 5-yr-old girl, not previously taking topiramate, developed neurological symptoms after acute ingestion of this medication. She was intermittently agitated, complained of &quot;not being able to feel anything,&quot; demonstrated arching movements of the back, and perseverated upon questioning. Computerized tomography of the head and electroencephalography were both normal, and urine toxicology testing for drugs of abuse was negative. A serum topiramate level was 10.5 mcg/mL, confirming the ingestion. The patient was observed for 24 h, over which time her symptoms completely resolved.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
