Pediatric tramadol ingestion resulting in seizurelike activity: a case series

Suzan S Mazor et al. Pediatr Emerg Care. 2008 Jun.

Abstract

Tramadol has been reported to cause seizures in therapeutic dosing and in overdose. We present a series of 2 infants poisoned with tramadol, both presenting with abnormal neurologic findings: either seizures or seizurelike activity. Tramadol poisoning should be considered in the differential diagnosis of dystonia and seizures.
