[Valproic acid and stupor].

Abstract	A patient treated with valproic acid and phenytoin for complex partial epilepsy developed a stupor at therapeutic serum levels of the anti-epileptic agents. A few days after discontinuation of valproic acid, complete recovery occurred. The pathogenic mechanism involved is still obscure.
