Antiepileptic Drug Therapy in Patients with Drug-Resistant Epilepsy [PDF]

Journal of Epilepsy Research, 2019
Antiepileptic drug (AED) therapy starts with an accurate diagnosis of epilepsy and is followed by sequential drug trials. Seizure freedom is largely achieved by the first two drug trials; thus, epilepsy that cannot be controlled after appropriately conducted trials of the first two drugs is defined as drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE).
