In this Synaptic Tails episode, hosts Dr Emma Hancox and Dr Mark Lowrie focus on the 'A' in the S.M.A.R.T. approach to Epilepsy - 'Advise.' Dr Lowrie provides an in-depth dive into three key areas of epilepsy treatment: management of seizures, management of the underlying cause, and importantly, management of the owner. The conversation touches on potential therapies, handling status epilepticus, toxicity, the importance of MRIs, and the balance between seizure control and quality of life.
