Article Abstract
Background: Late adverse reactions associated with the combined therapy of valproate and lamotrigine are infrequently documented within the Chinese population.
Case Presentation: This case report describes a 54-year-old female patient who developed adverse reactions following long-term therapy with valproate and lamotrigine, with symptoms emerging five months after the final adjustment of her antiseizure regimen. The patient presented with symptoms of dizziness, ataxia, nystagmus, and postural tremors. Following blood drug concentration monitoring and subsequent minor dosage adjustments to the antiseizure regimen without medication withdrawal, the patient's symptoms were successfully resolved.
Conclusions: This article underscores the importance of vigilance among clinicians regarding the potential for late adverse reactions and advocates for the proactive monitoring of blood drug concentrations.

Background: Allopurinol, the most prescribed urate-lowering drug, is a known cause of severe cutaneous adverse reactions. We aimed to develop and validate a model to assess the risk of allopurinol-induced severe cutaneous adverse reactions in adults newly prescribed allopurinol.
Methods: In this retrospective new-user cohort study, we developed and validated a prognostic model using primary care, hospitalisation, and mortality data extracted from the UK Clinical Practice Research Datalink (CPRD) primary care database, for the period Jan 1, 2001, to March 29, 2021.
