The Course of Children with Epilepsy Who Discontinued Treatment 2–3 Years After Their Last Seizure

Purpose: Anticonvulsant drugs (AEDs) have potential side effects, and therefore, discontinuation of administration at an early stage is preferable. The general policy for treatment in Japan depends greatly on the electroencephalographic (EEG) findings. In Europe and America, however, the general policy is to discontinue treatment if no epileptic seizures have occured within 2 years. We followed the latter policy, and in cases of intractable seizures, the medication was discontinued 3 years after the cessation of seizures. Some cases in which the medication was discontinued within 2 years after cessation of the seizures were also included in this report. The risk factors were examined as indicated later.
