Various investigations of ameliorative role of Ashwagandha seeds ( Withania somnifera) against amoxicillin toxicity. Toxicol Res (Camb) 2024; 13:tfae091. [PMID: 38873278 PMCID: PMC11167568 DOI: 10.1093/toxres/tfae091] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2024] [Revised: 05/03/2024] [Accepted: 06/05/2024] [Indexed: 06/15/2024] Open
Abstract
Several studies showed the adverse effects of amoxicillin on various body organs. So, this research has been designed to evaluate the modulatory role of Ashwagandha seed extract (ASE) against amoxicillin (AM) toxicity. Rats treated with AM (90 mg/kg), protected by ASE doses (100, 200 and 300 mg/kg), and treated by ASE at the same three doses. At the end of the experimental period, DNA comet assay, cytogenetic examinations, sperm-shape analysis, evaluation of the malondialdehyde (MDA) percentages, histopathological examinations, and biophysical tests (modulus, relaxation time, permittivity, entropy, and internal energy change of brain) were documented. The results confirmed that AM treatment induced significant elevation of DNA damage, cytogenetic aberrations, and MDA content in brain, liver, and testis tissues and sperm-shape anomalies. ASE treatment significantly minimized the genetic changes, sperm-shape anomalies, and MDA generation. These enhancements were more pronounced by protective ASE and increased by increasing the dose level. In histopathological examinations, AM treatment caused neurotoxicity in brain tissue. ASE treatment, partially, minimized these damages and the positive effects of therapeutic ASE were more noticeable. Biophysical parameters showed that therapeutic ASE was better for relaxation time, permittivity, and free energy change. Protective and therapeutic ASE were able to recover entropy and internal energy changes in variant degrees.

Abstract
Amoxicillin, a widely used antibiotic in human and veterinary pharmaceuticals, is now considered as an "emerging contaminant" because it exists widespreadly in the environment and brings a series of adverse outcomes. Currently, systematic studies about the developmental toxicity of amoxicillin are still lacking. We explored the potential effects of amoxicillin exposure on pregnancy outcomes, maternal/fetal serum phenotypes, and fetal multiple organ development in mice, at different doses (75, 150, 300 mg/(kg·day)) during late-pregnancy, or at a dose of 300 mg/(kg·day) during different stages (mid-/late-pregnancy) and courses (single-/multi-course). Results showed that prenatal amoxicillin exposure (PAmE) had no significant influence on the body weights of dams, but it could inhibit the physical development and reduce the survival rate of fetuses, especially during the mid-pregnancy. Meanwhile, PAmE altered multiple maternal/fetal serum phenotypes, especially in fetuses. Fetal multi-organ function results showed that PAmE inhibited testicular/adrenal steroid synthesis, long bone/cartilage and hippocampal development, and enhanced ovarian steroid synthesis and hepatic glycogenesis/lipogenesis, and the order of severity might be gonad (testis, ovary) > liver > others. Further analysis found that PAmE-induced multi-organ developmental and functional alterations had differences in stages, courses and fetal gender, and the most obvious changes might be in high-dose, late-pregnancy and multi-course, but there was no typical rule of a dose-response relationship. In conclusion, this study confirmed that PAmE could cause abnormal development and multi-organ function alterations, which deepens our understanding of the risk of PAmE and provides an experimental basis for further exploration of the long-term harm.

Abstract
Due to the widely usage in livestock, aquaculture and clinics, antibiotic residues are existed in aqueous environments and their potential toxicity to aquatic organisms is concerning. Here, we used zebrafish as the model to investigate the neurotoxicity and involved mechanism of seven antibiotics that were frequently detected in surface waters. The results revealed that the short-term exposure to clarithromycin (CLA), chlortetracycline (CTC) and roxithromycin (ROX) induced behavioral effects, with effective concentration of 1 μg/L (CTC and ROX) and 100 μg/L (CLA, CTC and ROX) respectively. A significant decrease in the travel distance and velocity as well as an increase in turn angle was measured. TUNEL assay identified increased cell apoptosis in brain sections of larvae exposed to three neurotoxic antibiotics, which raised the possibility that the behavioral symptoms were associated with neural damage. Transcriptome sequencing showed that the three antibiotics could affect the nervous system of zebrafish including the alteration of synaptogenesis and neurotransmission. Additionally, ROX and CTC affected pathways involved in mitochondrial stress response and endocrine system in zebrafish larvae. Besides, BDNF, ASCL1, and CREBBP are potential upstream regulatory factors that mediated these impacts. These findings indicated that exposure of CTC, ROX and CLA may cause abnormal behavior toward zebrafish larvae under environmental relevant concentration and revealed the potential role of neural cell apoptosis and synaptogenesis signaling in mediating this effect.

Maternal antibiotic administration during gestation can affect the memory and brain structure in mouse offspring. Front Cell Neurosci 2023; 17:1176676.

Abstract
Maternal antibiotics administration (MAA) is among the widely used therapeutic approaches in pregnancy. Although published evidence demonstrates that infants exposed to antibiotics immediately after birth have altered recognition memory responses at one month of age, very little is known about in utero effects of antibiotics on the neuronal function and behavior of children after birth. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the impact of MAA at different periods of pregnancy on memory decline and brain structural alterations in young mouse offspring after their first month of life. To study the effects of MAA on 4-week-old offspring, pregnant C57BL/6J mouse dams (2-3-month-old; n = 4/group) were exposed to a cocktail of amoxicillin (205 mg/kg/day) and azithromycin (51 mg/kg/day) in sterile drinking water (daily/1 week) during either the 2nd or 3rd week of pregnancy and stopped after delivery. A control group of pregnant dams was exposed to sterile drinking water alone during all three weeks of pregnancy. Then, the 4-week-old offspring mice were first evaluated for behavioral changes. Using the Morris water maze assay, we revealed that exposure of pregnant mice to antibiotics at the 2nd and 3rd weeks of pregnancy significantly altered spatial reference memory and learning skills in their offspring compared to those delivered from the control group of dams. In contrast, no significant difference in long-term associative memory was detected between offspring groups using the novel object recognition test. Then, we histologically evaluated brain samples from the same offspring individuals using conventional immunofluorescence and electron microscopy assays. To our knowledge, we observed a reduction in the density of the hippocampal CA1 pyramidal neurons and hypomyelination in the corpus callosum in groups of mice in utero exposed to antibiotics at the 2nd and 3rd weeks of gestation. In addition, offspring exposed to antibiotics at the 2nd or 3rd week of gestation demonstrated a decreased astrocyte cell surface area and astrocyte territories or depletion of neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus and hippocampal synaptic loss, respectively. Altogether, this study shows that MAA at different times of pregnancy can pathologically alter cognitive behavior and brain development in offspring at an early age after weaning.

Amoxicillin-Induced Neurotoxicity: Contribution of a Healthcare Data Warehouse to the Determination of a Toxic Concentration Threshold. Antibiotics (Basel) 2023; 12:antibiotics12040680. [PMID: 37107042 PMCID: PMC10135267 DOI: 10.3390/antibiotics12040680] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/12/2022] [Revised: 03/14/2023] [Accepted: 03/16/2023] [Indexed: 04/03/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: Amoxicillin (AMX)-induced neurotoxicity is well described and may be associated with AMX overexposure. No neurotoxic concentration threshold has been determined thus far. A better knowledge of maximum tolerable AMX concentrations is of importance to improve the safety of high doses of AMX. Methods: We conducted a retrospective study using the local hospital data warehouse EhOP® to generate a specific query related to AMX neurotoxicity symptomatology. All patient medical reports containing a mention of neurotoxicity clinical symptoms coupled with AMX plasma concentration measurements were explored. Patients were classified into two groups according to the imputability of AMX in the onset of their neurotoxicity, on the basis of chronological and semiological criteria. A receiver-operating characteristic curve was performed to identify an AMX neurotoxic steady-state concentration (Css) threshold. Results: The query identified 101 patients among 2054 patients benefiting from AMX TDM. Patients received a median daily dose of 9 g AMX, with a median creatinine clearance of 51 mL/min. A total of 17 of the 101 patients exhibited neurotoxicity attributed to AMX. The mean Css was higher for patients with neurotoxicity attributed to AMX (118 ± 62 mg/L) than those without 74 ± 48 mg/L (p = 0.002). A threshold AMX concentration of 109.7 mg/L predicted the occurrence of neurotoxicity. Conclusions: This study identified, for the first time, an AMX Css threshold of 109.7 mg/L associated with an excess risk of neurotoxicity. This approach needs to be confirmed by a prospective study with systematic neurological evaluation and TDM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Amoxicillin has been widely used to treat infectious diseases during pregnancy. Current studies suggest that amoxicillin exposure during pregnancy could lead to developmental disorders in the offspring and increase the incidence of long-term complications such as asthma and kidney damage in adulthood. However, the adverse effects of prenatal amoxicillin exposure (PAmE) including administration stage, doses and courses on fetal hippocampal neurodevelopment and its function in the offspring have not been elucidated. In this study, we intend to investigate the effects of PAmE on fetal hippocampal development and its possible mechanisms. METHOD Pregnant Kunming mice were given intragastric administration with amoxicillin at different administration stage, doses and courses, and GD (gestational day) 18 offspring hippocampus was collected for morphological and development-related functional assays, and the molecular mechanisms were explored. RESULTS PAmE induced hippocampal hypoplasia in the offspring with suppressed hippocampal neuronal cell proliferation and impaired neuronal synaptic plasticity comparatively; hippocampal astrocyte and microglia were damaged to varying degrees. The developmental toxicity of PAmE in fetal mices varies by time, dose, and course of treatment. The most severe damage was observed in the late gestation, high dose, and multi-course dosing groups. The significant reduction either in SOX2, an essential gene in regulating neural progenitor cell proliferation, and reduction of genes related to the Wnt/β-catenin pathway may suggest that the key role of SOX2/Wnt/β-catenin pathway in impaired hippocampal development in the offspring due to PAmE. CONCLUSION In this study, PAmE was found to be developmentally toxic to the hippocampus thus to induce developmental damage to various hippocampal cells; Even with current clinically safe doses, potential hippocampal damage to offspring may still present; This study provides a theoretical and experimental basis for guiding the rational usage of drugs during pregnancy and giving effectively assessment of the risk on fetal hippocampal developmental toxicity.

Exposure to Antibiotics and Neurodevelopmental Disorders: Could Probiotics Modulate the Gut-Brain Axis? Antibiotics (Basel) 2022; 11:antibiotics11121767.

Abstract
In order to develop properly, the brain requires the intricate interconnection of genetic factors and pre-and postnatal environmental events. The gut-brain axis has recently raised considerable interest for its involvement in regulating the development and functioning of the brain. Consequently, alterations in the gut microbiota composition, due to antibiotic administration, could favor the onset of neurodevelopmental disorders. Literature data suggest that the modulation of gut microbiota is often altered in individuals affected by neurodevelopmental disorders. It has been shown in animal studies that metabolites released by an imbalanced gut-brain axis, leads to alterations in brain function and deficits in social behavior. Here, we report the potential effects of antibiotic administration, before and after birth, in relation to the risk of developing neurodevelopmental disorders. We also review the potential role of probiotics in treating gastrointestinal disorders associated with gut dysbiosis after antibiotic administration, and their possible effect in ameliorating neurodevelopmental disorder symptoms.

Abstract
Recently, the demand for food proteins in the market has increased due to a rise in degenerative illnesses that are associated with the excessive production of free radicals and the unwanted side effects of various drugs, for which researchers have suggested diets rich in bioactive compounds. Some of the functional compounds present in foods are antioxidant and antimicrobial peptides, which are used to produce foods that promote health and to reduce the consumption of antibiotics. These peptides have been obtained from various sources of proteins, such as foods and agri-food by-products, via enzymatic hydrolysis and microbial fermentation. Peptides with antioxidant properties exert effective metal ion (Fe2+/Cu2+) chelating activity and lipid peroxidation inhibition, which may lead to notably beneficial effects in promoting human health and food processing. Antimicrobial peptides are small oligo-peptides generally containing from 10 to 100 amino acids, with a net positive charge and an amphipathic structure; they are the most important components of the antibacterial defense of organisms at almost all levels of life-bacteria, fungi, plants, amphibians, insects, birds and mammals-and have been suggested as natural compounds that neutralize the toxicity of reactive oxygen species generated by antibiotics and the stress generated by various exogenous sources. This review discusses what antioxidant and antimicrobial peptides are, their source, production, some bioinformatics tools used for their obtainment, emerging technologies, and health benefits.

Abstract
Gut microbiota is closely associated with the occurrence of neuropsychiatric disorders. Antibiotics are frequently used to prevent pathogen infection in patients with brain ischemia. To understand the impact of prophylactic antibiotic treatment for patients with brain ischemia, we examined the effects of orally administered vancomycin and ampicillin on cognitive function and gut microbiota composition in mice with transient global forebrain ischemia (tIsc). tIsc operation and orally gavaged vancomycin mildly and moderately caused cognitive impairment, respectively. However, the exposure of mice with tIsc to vancomycin or ampicillin severely impaired cognitive function in the Y-maze, novel object recognition, and Banes maze tasks. Furthermore, their treatments induced NF-κB activation as well as active microglia (NF-κB+/Iba1+ and LPS+/Iba1+ cells) and apoptotic (caspase 3+/NeuN+) cell population in the hippocampus, whereas the brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF)+/NeuN+ cell populations decreased. These treatments also caused colitis and gut dysbiosis. They increased the population of Proteobacteria including Enterobacter xiangfangenesis. Orally delivered fecal transplantation of vancomycin-treated mice with or without tIsc and oral gavage of Enterobacter xiangfangenesis also significantly deteriorated the cognitive impairment and colitis in transplanted mice with tIsc. These findings suggest that oral administration of antibiotics can deteriorate cognitive impairment with gut dysbiosis in patients with brain ischemia.

The usages of antibiotics in treating the pathogenic infections could alter the gut microbiome and associated resistome, causing long term adverse impact on human health. In this study, mice were treated with human-simulated regimen 25.0 mg kg-1 of amoxicillin for seven days, and their gut microbiota and resistome were characterized using the 16S rRNA amplicons sequencing and the high-throughput qPCR, respectively. Meanwhile, the flora restorations after individual applications of inulin, Bifidobacterium longum (B. longum), and fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) were analyzed for up to 35 days. The results revealed the prolonged negative impact of single course AMX exposure on mice gut microbiota and resistome. To be specific, pathobionts of Klebsiella and Escherichia-Shigella were significantly enriched, while prebiotics of Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus were dramatically depleted. Furthermore, β-lactam resistance genes and efflux resistance genes were obviously enriched after amoxicillin exposure. Compared to B. longum, FMT and inulin were demonstrated to preferably restore the gut microbiota via reconstituting microbial community and stimulating specific prebiotic respectively. Such variation of microbiome caused their distinct alleviations on resistome alteration. Inulin earned the greatest elimination on AMX induced ARG abundance and diversity enrichment. FMT and B. longum caused remove of particular ARGs such as ndm-1, blaPER. Network analysis revealed that most of the ARGs were prone to be harbored by Firmicutes and Proteobacteria. In general, gut resistome shift was partly associated with the changing bacterial community structures and transposase and integron. Taken together, these results demonstrated the profound disruption of gut microbiota and resistome after single-course amoxicillin treatment and different restoration by inulin, B. longum and FMT.

Abstract
β-Lactam antibiotics can increase the resistance and virulence of individual intestinal microorganisms, which may affect host physiology and health. Klebsiella, a crucial gut inhabitant, has been confirmed to be resistant to most β-lactam antibiotics and contributes to the etiology of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). In this study, the influence of amoxicillin (AMO) on Klebsiella and its role in colitis was investigated in an antibiotic cocktail (ABx) murine model. The results suggested that a 7-day AMO treatment significantly enriched the abundance of Klebsiella and enhanced serum resistance, antibiotic resistance, and biofilm formation ability of Klebsiella variicola (K. variicola) compared to the wild-type strain in the control group mice. Colonization of mice with the AMO-associated K. variicola could induce Th1 cells and inhibit Treg differentiation to promote inflammation in ABx murine model. In addition, inoculation of AMO-associated K. variicola in dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis murine model mice also confirmed that K. variicola colonization exacerbated inflammation as assessed by increased TNF-α, IFN-γ, IL-17a, and disease activity (DAI) levels; decreased colon length and bodyweight; and a disrupted Th1/Treg balance. The results of our study demonstrate that AMO enhances Klebsiella virulence in mice by disrupting the T cell equilibrium to exacerbate colitis, thereby providing a reference for proper antibiotic prescription.

Abstract
Early childhood growth and development is conditioned by the consecutive events belonging to perinatal programming. This critical window of life will be very sensitive to any event altering programming of the main body functions. Programming of gut function, which is starting right after conception, relates to a very well-established series of cellular and molecular events associating all types of cells present in this organ, including neurons, endocrine and immune cells. At birth, this machinery continues to settle with the establishment of extra connection between enteric and other systemic systems and is partially under the control of gut microbiota activity, itself being under the densification and the diversification of microorganisms' population. As thus, any environmental factor interfering on this pre-established program may have a strong incidence on body functions. For all these reasons, pregnant women, fetuses and infants will be particularly susceptible to environmental factors and especially food contaminants. In this review, we will summarize the actual understanding of the consequences of repeated low-level exposure to major food contaminants on gut homeostasis settlement and on brain/gut axis communication considering the pivotal role played by the gut microbiota during the fetal and postnatal stages and the presumed consequences of these food toxicants on the individuals especially in relation with the risks of developing later in life non-communicable chronic diseases.

Abstract
Emerging evidence indicates that disruption of the intestinal flora play an important role in the pathogenesis of depression. As one of the causes of such disturbances, the role of antibiotics in depression risk is gradually being revealed. Herein, we review recent findings showing that the use of both single and multiple antibiotic regimens may be related to depression by changing the gut microbiota and the brain-gut axis. Based on recent discoveries, we also suggest that several brain-gut interactive mechanisms (particularly those involving nerve and glial cells, neurotransmitters, brain neurotrophic factors, inflammatory factors, short-chain fatty acids, circulating metabolites, blood-brain barrier, and oxidative stress) may help understand the effects of antibiotics on intestinal flora and its relationship with depression.

Abstract
The standard methods for toxicity testing using rodent models cannot keep pace with the increasing number of chemicals in our environment due to time and resource limitations. Hence, there is an unmet need for fast, sensitive, and cost-effective alternate models to reliably predict toxicity. As part of Tox21 Phase III's effort, a 90-compound library was created and made available to researchers to screen for neurotoxicants using novel technology and models. The chemical library was evaluated in zebrafish in a dose-range finding test for embryo-toxicity (ie, mortality or morphological alterations induced by each chemical). In addition, embryos exposed to the lowest effect level and nonobservable effect level were used to measure the internal concentration of the chemicals within the embryos by bioanalysis. Finally, considering the lowest effect level as the highest testing concentration, a functional assay was performed based on locomotor activity alteration in response to light-dark changes. The quality control chemicals included in the library, ie, negative controls and replicated chemicals, indicate that the assays performed were reliable. The use of analytical chemistry pointed out the importance of measuring chemical concentration inside embryos, and in particular, in the case of negative chemicals to avoid false negative classification. Overall, the proposed approach presented a good sensitivity and supports the inclusion of zebrafish assays as a reliable, relevant, and efficient screening tool to identify, prioritize, and evaluate chemical toxicity.

Antibiotics and the nervous system: More than just the microbes? Brain Behav Immun 2019; 77:7-15.

Abstract
The use of antibiotics has recently risen to prominence in neuroscience due to their potential value in studying the microbiota-gut-brain axis. In this context they have been largely employed to illustrate the many influences of the gut microbiota on brain function and behaviour. Much of this research is bolstered by the abnormal behaviour seen in germ-free animals and other well-controlled experiments. However, this literature has largely failed to consider the neuroactive potential of antibiotics themselves, independent from, or in addition to, their microbicidal effects. This is problematic, as clinical as well as experimental literature, largely neglected through the past decade, has clearly demonstrated that broad classes of antibiotics are neuroactive or neurotoxic. This is true even for some antibiotics that are widely regarded as not absorbed in the intestinal tract, and is especially concerning when considering the highly-concentrated and widely-ranging doses that have been used. In this review we will critically survey the clinical and experimental evidence that antibiotics may influence a variety of nervous system functions, from the enteric nervous system through to the brain and resultant behaviour. We will discuss substantial evidence which clearly suggests neuro-activity or -toxicity by most classes of antibiotics. We will conclude that, while evidence for the microbiota-gut-brain axis remains strong, clinical and experimental studies which employ antibiotics to probe it must consider this potential confound.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Antibiotic abuse is a common phenomenon in Egypt as medications are prescribed without supervision. It is suggested that the excess use of antibiotics modifies the gut microbiota and plays a role in the development of neurological and psychiatric disorders. OBJECTIVE The aim of the present study was to use bulb-c mice as models for curam (amoxicillin /clavulanic acid) abuse compared to the locally acting neomycin model, then restoring the probiotic balance to look at the possible effects on the animal brains. METHODS The results showed early excitable brains demonstrated by S100b immunohistochemistry in both cortexes and hippocampuses of neomycin-treated mice. Staining with PAS stain showed no suggested neurodegenerative changes. Treatment with probiotics improved the S100b immunohistochemistry profile of the curam group partially but failed to overcome the neuroinflammatory reaction detected by hematoxylin and eosin stain. Curam was possibly blamed for the systemic effects. RESULTS The neurobehavioral tests showed delayed impairment in the open field test for the curam group and impaired new object recognition for the neomycin group. These tests were applied by video recording. The neurobehavioral decline developed 14 days after the end of the 3-week antibiotic course. Unfortunately, curam abuse induced animal fatalities. CONCLUSION Antibiotic abuse has a neurotoxic effect that works by both local and more prominent systemic mechanisms. It can be said that antibiotic abuse is a cofactor behind the rise of neuropsychiatric diseases in Egypt.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to determine whether there is the mechanistic connection between antibacterial-dependent gut microbiota disturbance and anxiety. First, exposure of mice to ampicillin caused anxiety and colitis and increased the population of Proteobacteria, particularly Klebsiella oxytoca, in gut microbiota and fecal and blood lipopolysaccharide levels, while decreasing lactobacilli population including Lactobacillus reuteri. Next, treatments with fecal microbiota of ampicillin-treated mouse (FAP), K. oxytoca, or lipopolysaccharide isolated from K. oxytoca (KL) induced anxiety and colitis in mice and increased blood corticosterone, IL-6, and lipopolysaccharide levels. Moreover, these treatments also increased the recruitment of microglia (Iba1+), monocytes (CD11b+/CD45+), and dendritic cells (CD11b+/CD11c+) to the hippocampus, as well as the population of apoptotic neuron cells (caspase-3+/NeuN+) in the brain. Furthermore, ampicillin, K. oxytoca, and KL induced NF-κB activation and IL-1β and TNF-α expression in the colon and brain as well as increased gut membrane permeability. Finally, oral administration of L. reuteri alleviated ampicillin-induced anxiety and colitis. These results suggest that ampicillin exposure can cause anxiety through neuro-inflammation which can be induced by monocyte/macrophage-activated gastrointestinal inflammation and elevated Proteobacteria population including K. oxytoca, while treatment with lactobacilli suppresses it.

Abstract
Antibiotic use is associated with toxic effects involving the peripheral and central nervous systems and it may interfere with antiepileptic drugs, causing significant variations in their serum levels and activity. Prompt identification of neurological complications during antibiotic therapy is important in order to make appropriate modifications to medication. Characteristics of the drug and the patient, including age and underlying diseases, may favour these complications. The main aim of this study was to review the neurological adverse events that may follow antibiotic administration, the mechanisms that cause them, and the possibility of prevention and treatment. Moreover, the interference of antibiotics with serum levels and the activity of antiepileptic drugs are discussed. The results demonstrate that antibiotic-associated adverse events involving the nervous system are relatively uncommon and are only rarely severe and irreversible, although neurotoxicity has been reported for several antibiotics. Moreover, for patients receiving antiepileptic drugs, monitoring of drug serum levels to avoid the risk of toxicity or inadequate therapy is mandatory during antibiotic treatment. Areas for future research include the effects of combined antibiotic therapies as well as multiple antiepileptic drugs in study populations with an adequate sample size, including neonates and infants, patients with pharmacoresistant epilepsy and elderly patients.
