Today I am going to talk about the roulette of Anti Epilepsy Medication (AED’s). It is one of the most common questions I get from women who contact me; “What meds were you on” “What changed during pregnancy” “What do you take now?” This blog may seem like a bit of a moan but I promise it isn’t, I am going to try and give an overview of how difficult it can be to find the right dose of medication or the right combination (it is estimated that 70% of people with epilepsy could be seizure free with the right treatment.) and the misconceptions around it, I know I am not alone when I say it is very frustrating when people don’t understand the complexity around AED’s.
