The role of dopamine in epilepsy
  • M. Starr
  • Psychology, Medicine
    Synapse
  • 1 February 1996
TLDR
While there is no immediate prospect of developing D2 agonists or D1 antagonists as clinically useful antiepileptics, there is a growing awareness that seizures might be precipitated as a consequence of treating other neurological disorders with D2 antagonists (schizophrenia) or D 1 agonists (parkinsonism).
