To describe the frequency and characteristics of anticonvulsant medication treatments initiated in the neonatal period. We analyzed a cohort of neonates with a seizure diagnosis who were discharged from institutions in the Pediatric Health Information System between 2007 and 2016. Adjusted risk ratios (aRRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for characteristics associated with neonatal (≤ 28-days postnatal) anticonvulsant initiation were calculated via modified Poisson regression. 6245 infants from 47 institutions were included. There was a decrease in both phenobarbital initiation within the neonatal period (96.9% to 91.3%, P =0.015) and continuation at discharge (90.6% to 68.6%, P <0.001). Levetiracetam (7.9% to 39.6%, P <0.001) initiation within the neonatal period and continuation at discharge (9.4% to 49.8%, P <0.001) increased. Neonates born at ≥37-weeks’ gestation and those diagnosed with intraventricular hemorrhage, ischemic/thrombotic stroke, other hemorrhagic stroke, and hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) had a higher probability of anticonvulsant administration. The most prevalent diagnosis was HIE (n=2223, 44.4%). Phenobarbital remains the most widely used neonatal seizure treatment. Levetiracetam is increasingly used as a second line therapy. Increasing levetiracetam use indicates a need for additional study to determine its effectiveness in reducing seizure burden and improving long-term outcomes.
