Epilepsy is one of the most common serious neurological conditions in the world. 1 in 97 people live with epilepsy in Scotland, that's approximately 58,000 people.
Treatment
Epilepsy is a long-term condition because people often live with it for many years, or for life. While epilepsy cannot be ‘cured’, seizures can often be controlled by medication minimising the impact epilepsy has on a person’s lives.
If you have just been diagnosed with epilepsy, you might have questions about treatment and medication. You can learn more about treatment options on our Treatment page.
