Drug treatment of seizures

[Couch Potatoe]

No single drug controls all types of seizures, and different patients require different drugs. Some patients require multiple drugs. (See also the practice guideline for the treatment of refractory epilepsy from the American Academy of Neurology and the American Epilepsy Society.)
Rarely, an antiseizure drug that is effective for one seizure type may aggravate another seizure type.
