If you’re diagnosed with epilepsy, you’ll need to look at treatment options with your doctor. Taking medicines to stop or reduce your seizures is usually the main treatment for epilepsy.
Surgery is sometimes offered as a form of epilepsy treatment.
There are additional treatments that may be offered to people if they are appropriate, such a VNS therapy or Ketogenic diet.
