title: [Problems posed by the therapeutic combination of phenobarbital and sodium dipropylacetate. Apropos of a case].
abstract: The authors report on the observation of an epileptic woman who showed the clinical and electro-encephalographic symptoms of an overdose of barbiturates when undergoing treatment associating Depakine and Gardenal. Resumption of the treatment results in identical symptoms. The potentialisation of this association and the mechanism by which it acts are as yet unknown.
