Rational Management of Alcohol Withdrawal Seizures

Southern Medical Journal, 1978

With the exception of a well defined subgroup of withdrawing patients, this may not be appropriate. Chronic anticonvulsant therapy is not indicated without evidence of another underlying seizure diathesis.

Withdrawal seizures in alcoholics. A transverse and longitudinal investigation

74 heavy drinkers, divided in two groups by positive or negative history for withdrawal seizures, were evaluated on the history, clinical, biochemical, CT, EEG and psychometric investigations. Some of them have been followed up for 20 months. The results suggest the possible role of a constitutional predisposition for withdrawal seizures.

Anxiety and Sensitivity to Ethanol and Pentobarbital in Alcohol Withdrawal Seizure-Prone and Withdrawal Seizure-Resistant Mice

Alcoholism: Clinical and Experimental Research, 2000
Background: Withdrawal Seizure‐Prone (WSP) and Withdrawal Seizure‐Resistant (WSR) mice were selectively bred for high and low handling‐induced convulsions, respectively, after chronic ethanol treatment. Withdrawal severity is one factor that may contribute to the development of alcoholism and/or substance abuse, and anxiety is another.
