This is not a site for medical advice, when you need information on a medical condition, consult a professional instead. EPILEPSY (Gr. hiri, upon, and Xa,u3avav, to seize), or Falling Sickness , a term applied generally to a nervous disorder, characterized by a fit of sudden loss of consciousness, attended with convulsions . There may, however, exist manifestations of epilepsy much less marked than this, yet equally characteristic of the disease; while, on the other hand, it is to be borne in mind that many other attacks of a convulsive nature have the term "epileptic" or "epileptiform" applied to them. Epilepsy was well known in ancient times, and was regarded as a special infliction of the gods, hence the names morbus sacer, morbus divas. It was also termed morbus Herculeus, from Hercules having been supposed to have been epileptic, and morbus comitialis

Doctors use brain scans and other tests to diagnose epilepsy. It is important to start treatment right away. There is no cure for epilepsy, but medicines can control seizures for most people.

    Extractions: courtesy of epilepsy.com Special Report Generic Drugs: A Welcome Savings... But Are They Right for Everyone? Generic drugs are currently estimated to save consumers at least $8 to $10 billion a year at retail pharmacies because they cost less than the brand name versions of the same product. Because medications are a major cost of epilepsy, the availability of less expensive versions of brand name medicine can be very good news for people with epilepsy. However, generic drugs should only be given with consent from the physician. More on the Issue Our Position What Can You Do Epilepsy Medications List There is no cure for epilepsy, yet. Medications do not cure epilepsy in the same sense that penicillin can cure an infection. For many people with epilepsy, however, the medication will prevent seizures as long as they are taken regularly; but, successful drug therapy requires the active cooperation of the patient. Antiepileptic drugs successfully prevent seizures in the majority of people who take them regularly and as prescribed. It has been estimated that at least fifty percent of all patients with epilepsy gain complete control of their seizures for substantial periods of time. Another twenty percent enjoy a significant reduction in the number of seizures. If patients, in collaboration with their physicians, decide to attempt withdrawal from medications, they should be aware that the seizures may recur and should closely observe seizure precautions. Some individuals, however, have an excellent chance of remaining seizure free without medication in the future.
