Ebook: Managing Epilepsy with Women in Mind

Addressing the myriad issues specific to women with epilepsy, this book provides evidence-based recommendations for their management and indicates the areas where evidence is lacking and further research is needed. Reviewing the evidence that underpins the management of women with epilepsy, the authors provide at least one Action or Review Plan for each topic and include schedules for the review of the needs of women with epilepsy at various stages in their life cycle. They include a quick reference guide to anticonvulsant drugs, their usage, doses, side effects, and contra-indications. The book is a short, up-to-date text about epilepsy written with a focus on the issues faced by women with the condition.
