Bitemporal Epileptiform Discharges Induced by Bupropion: A Case Report

Abstract

We report the case of a 44-year-old right-handed woman who experienced her first convulsion while taking bupropion. Electroencephalography showed frequent bilateral independent temporal lobe epileptiform discharges that resolved when bupropion was discontinued. This is the first well-documented case of epileptiform discharges induced by bupropion in humans.
