HI and thanks for the query, There is no absolute cure for epilepsy. however, the available drugs when taken and monitored accordingly can make patients after 2 to 3 years of treatment to become symptom free. Cases resistant to treatment will require CT scans and MRIs and might need surgical management. Appropriate follow up is required for specific drug combinations might be needed to obtain symptom free states. I suggest you follow the recommendation drug dosages of your doctor. Avoiding situations or conditions that trigger epileptic seizures are also very important. Thanks and just the best of health.
