Amoxapine-induced seizures: case reports.

Abstract
Two patients are described who experienced seizures while on therapeutic doses of amoxapine. It is suggested that the structural similarities of amoxapine to the neuroleptics may account for side effects similar to the neuroleptic compounds, including seizures. Caution is encouraged in prescribing amoxapine to patients with a history of seizure disorder.
