Abstract

It is recognised that antiepileptic drug choice is driven by the desire for seizure control, but patient quality of life and consideration of other factors are also important for the treatment of the individual as a whole. In this expert panel discussion, three specialists discuss the benefits and potential for improved outcomes of a patient-centred approach to epilepsy management.
