Abstract
LEI AEDs may increase the risk of fracture in people with epilepsy. In patients at high risk of osteoporotic fracture alternative AED therapy may be appropriate. Further information is urgently needed on the safety of valproate and newer AEDs and on strategies to maintain bone health in people who need to be treated with LEI.
