Neurologists' use and interpretation of antiepileptic drug monitoring in the treatment of epilepsy.
Of the 150 local Ordinary Members of the Australian Association of Neurologists (AAN), 118 responded to a questionnaire on the use of AED level measurement in the management of epilepsy. AED level measurement is widely employed, but only phenytoin levels were accepted as being reliable by more than 90% of AAN members. Respondents questioned absolute reliance being placed on any of the other AED levels.
