Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Individual susceptibility to sodium valproate (VPA)-induced tremors may be due to genetic polymorphisms in the gene encoding the uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) enzyme, which affec the drug's clinical efficacy and cause toxic side effects. This study aimed to investigate the association between UGT1A6 polymorphisms and VPA-induced tremors in patients with epilepsy. METHODS: In total,...
