duration of treatment depends on type of seizures and etiology. Generally we stop drugs if there is no seizure for 3 yrs and almost 80% pts don't need further treatment. Get ur MRI 3T with epilepsy protocol and EEG done ....and if everything is normal...then I don't think u need eptoin for more than 3 yrs..
regards.
