Seizure disorders and concomitant prodromal or postictal behaviors are usually treated with anticonvulsant medication. This article studies the effects of sodium valproate and carbamazepine given alone and in combination with systematic interruption of aggression that accompanied seizures and with reinforcement for not exhibiting these behaviors. The patient, a 13-year-old mentally retarded female adolescent, showed considerably more improvement with the combined carbamazepine and behavior therapy regimen when it was compared to other treatments. Effects generalized outside the hospital setting.
