A member asked:
Do any neurologists recommend stopping anti-seizure meds if adult patient is seizure free for 5 years? (or a different period of time)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends: on the circumstances. If you have an abnormal EEG or history of recurring seizures then the short answer is no.
