Anti Epileptic Drugs
Can any body tell me about antiepileptic meds available in Pakistan? What are the main hurdles in managing epilepsy patients over there?

Re: AEDs
Thanks a lot for your reply. Is EEG is available in big cities? Do you know perticularly about Faisalabad.
What is your opinion about the management of patients with seizure disorders? I am talking about the proper diagnosis and proper selection of meds. Thanks.

Re: Anti Epileptic Drugs
How costly are these AEDs? I am wondering how people afford their cost and regular monitoring of side effects.
Thanks for your time.

Re: Anti Epileptic Drugs
Well ... they are not expensive. They are available easily. EEG is available in all big hospitals, no matter where they are located.
Dr. Nizam will answer rest of your questions.

Re: STROKE
hi Cocalo,
Can I ask you few questions?
Did you graduate from Pakistan and do you plan to contribute some thing towards the medical management of patients with stroke and epilepsy or are these just questions asked with the innocent surprise.
thanks
