fomepizole and Seizures

fomepizole has been researched along with Seizures in 2 studies

Fomepizole: A pyrazole and competitive inhibitor of ALCOHOL DEHYDROGENASE that is used for the treatment of poisoning by ETHYLENE GLYCOL or METHANOL.
fomepizole : A member of the class of pyrazoles that is 1H-pyrazole substituted by a methyl group at position 4.

Seizures: Clinical or subclinical disturbances of cortical function due to a sudden, abnormal, excessive, and disorganized discharge of brain cells. Clinical manifestations include abnormal motor, sensory and psychic phenomena. Recurrent seizures are usually referred to as EPILEPSY or seizure disorder.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The effects of a common industrial solvent, trichloroethylene (TCE), which was once used as an anesthetic agent but its in vivo mechanism is still unknown, on convulsant-induced seizures in mice were examined."3.71Acute exposure to trichloroethylene differentially alters the susceptibility to chemoconvulsants in mice. ( Chen, HH; Chiu, TH; Shih, CL, 2001)
"The case of a 43-year-old man who ingested 30 mL of a homemade 1,4-butanediol solution and who developed general seizures and coma has been reported here."3.71Treatment of a 1,4-butanediol poisoning with fomepizole. ( Baud, FJ; Fompeydie, D; Garnier, R; Mégarbane, B, 2002)
