A texting initiative from the Epilepsy Foundation and Care Epilepsy to assist in seizure management

  • Trying to take better care of yourself, but sometimes you forget to take your medication?
  • Want to be able to track your seizures in a personal diary and send it to your neurologist?
  • Need some motivation to get you through your day?

Texting 4 Control is all that and more.

Texting 4 Control lets users aged 13 and older with mobile phones:

  • receive reminders via text messaging about when to take medications
  • receive motivational messaging if you are having a particularly tough week managing your epilepsy, and
  • record seizures, emergency room visits, rescue meds, and/or injuries in a personal diary that you can share with your neurologist or epileptologist.

This sounds great! Where can I sign up?
