Abstract
Stopping AEDs in remission does not affect the long-term patterns of epilepsy and some patients report a better general health in a life without AEDs. High-risk patients should not be generally encouraged to stop their AEDs in remission. We need new drugs that combine anti-seizure and antiepileptogenic effects to prevent seizure relapse and flare up of epilepsy after stopping AEDs in remission.
