Abstract
The point prevalence of MDD is estimated at 21.9% among PWE in epilepsy clinics and is higher in females than in males. Based on this relatively high prevalence in PWE, measures are required to identify and resolve MDD. In addition, the female predominance of MDD among PWE indicates a need to pay greater attention to females. Such efforts may reduce the impact of depression in PWE and improve their QOL.
