Monitoring for Valproate and Phenytoin Toxicity in Hypoalbuminaemia: A Retrospective Cohort Study

Study (n=144) found hypoalbuminaemic patients less likely to have antiepileptic dose adjusted appropriately following drug level monitoring or have specialist neurologist follow-up vs. patients with normal albumin, suggesting potential underrecognition of toxicity in this group.
