    Author: Vaintrub MIa.
    Journal: Zh Nevropatol Psikhiatr Im S S Korsakova; 1987; 87(6):866-70. PubMed ID: 3630498.
    Abstract:
    The author describes the regimen of treatment with folic acid employed in 137 patients with epilepsy. The drug was given to 81 patients to control a complex of disturbances (psychic, neurologic, somatic) caused by folic acid hypovitaminosis secondary to a prolonged use of diphenin, phenobarbital and hexamidine and to another 56 patients to prevent its depletion and to improve the psychic condition. The author considers the questions of the theoretical justification of the pathogenetic treatment with folic acid of epileptic patients.
