Methylene blue-associated serotonin syndrome: a 'green' encephalopathy after parathyroidectomy.

abstract：OBJECTIVES:Prophylactic treatment with antiepileptic drugs is common practice following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and traumatic brain injury. However, commonly used antiepileptic drugs have multiple drug interactions, require frequent monitoring of serum levels, and are associated with adverse effects that may prom...
