Abstract
The main principle of epilepsy treatment is long-term regular intake of antiepileptic drugs (PEP) to reduce the frequency of seizures or their complete reduction in the absence of clinically significant side effects. Timely detection and correction of adverse reactions is an integral part of the treatment of epilepsy.
