AAN 2024 | The Lancet commission on epilepsy: a practical guide for non-specialists

Jacqueline French, MD, NYU Comprehensive Epilepsy Center, New York, NY, discusses the upcoming publication of the Lancet commission on epilepsy: a practical guide for non-specialists. The publication aims to give guidance on the best practices for treating epilepsy, as the treatment process has become more complex with various treatment options available. It emphasizes the importance of diagnosing the specific type of epilepsy, to inform treatment decisions and for patients to better understand their condition. It also gives guidance on rescue plans, preparations for pregnancy, and informing patients on the importance of adherence to medication. This interview took place at the American Academy of Neurology (AAN) Annual Meeting 2024 in Denver, CO.
