Psychiatric Adverse Events During Vigabatrin Therapy
Neurol 53:1503-1511, Levinson,D.F.&Devinsky,O., 1999
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Vigabatrin use in treatment-refractory partial epilepsy is associated with increased occurrence of depression and of psychosis, although the frequency of psychosis is apparently lower than previously reported. Clinical experience suggests that these adverse events respond to reduction of vigabatrin dose or to counteractive psychotropic treatment.
