From Seizures to Solutions: Advances in Epilepsy Treatment

Abstract

Jesper Vinding

Epilepsy, a neurological disorder characterized by recurrent seizures, has challenged medical science for centuries. The unpredictability and often devastating impact of seizures on individuals’ lives have spurred researchers and clinicians to explore innovative treatments. Over the years, significant progress has been made in understanding epilepsy and developing effective interventions, offering hope and improved quality of life for millions worldwide. Historically, epilepsy treatment primarily revolved around managing symptoms through medication. While Antiepileptic Drugs (AEDs) have been instrumental in controlling seizures for many, they are not universally effective and often come with side effects that can be burdensome for patients. However, recent decades have witnessed a revolution in epilepsy management, with breakthroughs in various therapeutic modalities.
