Overview

Most people with epilepsy can become seizure-free with the right medicine. Accurate diagnosis of the seizure type guides treatment, and specialist options are available when medicines do not work.

Who it may help

  • People who have had a first seizure
  • People with epilepsy whose seizures are not controlled
  • Women with epilepsy planning pregnancy
  • Children and adults with side effects from medicines

What the service includes

EEG and brain MRI, choice and adjustment of anti-seizure medicines, advice on safety, driving, work and pregnancy, and assessment for epilepsy surgery or other treatments when needed.

What to expect

Keep a seizure diary and take medicines regularly. Regular follow-up reviews seizure control and side effects.
