Pharmacodynamic Monitoring of Antiepileptic Drug Therapy.

abstract：:There are a number of effective but highly toxic drugs that exhibit a narrow therapeutic index and marked interpatient pharmacokinetic variability. Individualized therapy with such drugs requires therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) to obtain the desired clinical effects safely. Cost-effectiveness analysis in health care...
