Antiepileptic Drug Therapy

Antiepileptic drug therapy involves the use of medications to manage and prevent seizures in individuals with epilepsy. These drugs work by stabilizing electrical activity in the brain, either by increasing inhibitory signals or decreasing excitatory ones. There are various types of antiepileptic medications, each suited to different types of seizures and individual responses. Regular monitoring and dosage adjustments are essential to ensure effectiveness and minimize side effects. While these medications can control seizures for many people, ongoing medical supervision is crucial for optimal management of the condition.
