The brief discussion on the anti-epileptic drugs withdrawal in patients with epilepsy / 中华神经科杂志

ABSTRACT

Epilepsy is the common neurological disease, and antiepileptic drugs are the main means for the treatment of epilepsy. However, there is no conclusion on the timing of drug withdrawal in patients with epilepsy. In recent years, some large-scale prospective studies have provided some guidance on anti-epileptic drugs withdrawal. This article focused on the factors affecting the prognosis and timing of drug withdrawal, hoping to further the understanding of anti-epileptic drugs withdrawal and instruct clinical practise.
