چکیده: Introduction: Ciprofloxacin which was used in this study is a Fluoroquinolone (FQ). This
kind of drug may cause epileptic seizures probably because of the inhibition of GABA binding
to its receptors. Wag/Rij rats (an animal model for generalized absence epilepsy), were used
as experimental subjects.
Methods: For EEG study, electrodes were inserted into the cortex of animals according to
paxinos coordinates. After and before ciprofloxacin injection, EEG was recorded and their
SWDs were compared with each others.
Results: Findings showed a significant increase in the mean number of seizures during
recording period. But the mean number of SWDs during seizures did not show any significant
differences between groups.
Discussion: These results may be due to involvement of GABA antagonistic effects of FQs
and/or Mg2+ linked blockade of NMDA receptors. More researches are going to determine
physiopathology of SWDs and find new effective substance against this kind of epilepsy.
