Seizure and Status Epilepticus in Human Organophosphate Poisoning: A Narrative Review
Organophosphate (OP) exposure can trigger seizures within minutes and can rapidly evolve into status epilepticus (SE). Early seizure generation is plausibly driven by acetylcholinesterase inhibition, leading to central cholinergic overstimulation.
