Antiepileptic drugs (AEDs), also referred to as anti-seizure or anticonvulsant medications, play a crucial role in managing epilepsy, a chronic neurological condition characterized by unexpected and recurrent seizures. A seizure is the result of a temporary and excessive surge of electrical activity in the brain, which disrupts normal function and can lead to a variety of symptoms. These symptoms may include unusual sensations, loss of consciousness, falling, and involuntary muscle movements.
