Clinical and biological assessment of lamotrigine and levetiracetam plasma assays at the Rennes University Hospital.

CONCLUSION: The analysis of requests for antiepileptic drug assays at the University Hospital of Rennes revealed that clinicians were well aware of the HAS guidelines. In addition, the assay results were mainly consistent with clinical intuition, suggesting a real added value for patient management. However, the consequences in terms of changes in medical care seem limited. This assessment illustrates the importance of strengthening the dialogue between pharmacists, biologists and clinicians.
