Families & Caregivers
When a person has epilepsy, the whole family experiences it. From day to night, our daily routines bring up all types of questions like "Can my teen go away to college?" "Can my newborn take seizure medication?" In this section we'll try to answer all your questions about the various isses which arise regarding infants, children and teens.
Information For Families

Children with epilepsy have a higher rate of learning disorders than the general public. However, most children with epilepsy don't have learning problems.
More FAQs
Turn the page on your treatment by starting your Epilepsy Diary today.
Keeping a daily record of your seizures can help you and your doctor better understand and treat your epilepsy.
