( Gao, J; Laskowitz, DT; Lassiter, TF; Lynch, JR; McDonagh, DL; Sheng, H; Wang, H; Warner, DS, 2006)
" The overall conclusions from 2 recent studies in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage are that 1) many patients receive AEDs but should not; 2) long-term use is associated with worse outcome; and 3) short-term use is safer."2.44Antiepileptic drugs in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage.
