Cefepime is a widely used fourth-generation cephalosporin. It is commonly used as a first-line antibiotic to treat various infectious diseases such as neutropenic fever, urinary tract infections, hospital-acquired pneumonia, bacterial meningitis, and skin, intra-abdominal, and gynecological infections. 1 The clinical features of cefepime-induced encephalopathy (CIE) are confusion, agitation, myoclonic jerks, epileptic seizures, coma, and convulsive status epilepticus. 2 CIE was recently classified as a type-1 antibiotic-associated encephalopathy (AAE). 3 In type-1 AAE, seizures are observed more frequently than in psychosis.
