What should be done if the patient forgets to take a dose of anti-epileptic drugs?
It is not uncommon for many patients to forget to take a dose of their anti-epileptic medication once in a while. Very often the patient may not even remember if a dose was taken or not. In such a situation it is better to take an extra tablet within the same 24 hours period rather than risking the occurrence of seizure due to low levels of the drugs in patient’s blood.
