    Abstract:
    A prolonged prospective follow-up study of 306 cases of epilepsy was carried out and patients followed up for at least 3 years. The aim of this study was to know the range of seizure types, the severity of epilepsy, and the results of the treatment in a developing country like India. The results indicate that the reported familial incidence of seizures was low. Two-thirds of cases were adequately treated with a single drug. There was no significant teratogenic effect of the drugs. Majority of patients had seizure recurrence within 3 months of stopping anticonvulsant drugs.
