Background
A description of the experience
Tiagabine - is an anti-convulsive medication marketed under the brand name Gabitril. It is used as an adjunctive treatment for partial seizures in ages 12 and up.
It is believed to act [sic] as a selective GABA reuptake inhibitor. Tiagabine may induce seizures in those without epilepsy, especially if they are taking another drug which lowers the seizure threshold.
With overdoses in the range of 20-40 mg or more it will cause “extreme sedation, temporary retardation, muscle tremors and spasms, uncontrollable bodily tremors, retrograde and anterograde amnesia, thrashing, screaming, flailing and extreme hostility, unconsciousness with seizures or seizure-like symptoms”.
