The current study aims to investigate clinical and epidemiological characteristics of antiepileptic medication-induced SCARs in hospitalized children. This five-year retrospective study was conducted at Isfahan University of Medical Sciences, Iran. The study included all children with a diagnosis of SCARs secondary to antiepileptic medications as defined by the World Health Organization (WHO).
