title: [Anticonvulsant bromide therapy once and today].
abstract: During the past two decades, Bromides have undergone a renaissance as anticonvulsants. In this paper 6 indications for a modern bromide therapy are proposed. Guidelines referring to the concrete application of the drug, proposals concerning the dosage and any side effects are described. The present paper recalls the history of the first objectively effective treatment for confirmed epileptic syndromes and/or problems in the course of standard therapy (provocation of seizures, side effects, problematic interactions).
