a Sedation and ataxia b Gingival hyperplasia c Severe hypertension 40 Tiagabine (Gabitril) is MOST appropriately used when: a Partial seizures are poorly controlled by traditional therapy b A patient has absence seizures c Status epilepticus is suspected 41 Tiagabine reduces seizure activity primarily by: a Inhibiting reuptake of GABA in the synaptic cleft b Decreasing calcium influx in thalamic neurons c Blocking sodium channels 42 A patient taking tiagabine should be monitored MOST closely for: a Anxiety and depressive symptoms b Visual field loss c Cardiac arrhythmias 43 Antiepileptic drugs are MOST commonly administered by which route?
