Epilepsy is the fourth most common neurological disorder in the world, causing recurrent seizures that may affect the whole brain or parts of it. There’s no known cause of epilepsy, although there are risk factors that include head injuries, tumors, infections, metabolic problems, and genetics. There are various ways to treat epilepsy, including surgery, implantable devices, lifestyle interventions, and anticonvulsant medications. Treatment can get expensive, costing Americans about $24.5 billion per year. SingleCare can help people save on epilepsy medication.

Health insurance, including Medicare and Medicaid, typically covers epilepsy medication. However, coverage varies by plan. Some insurance plans may place certain drugs in higher tiers in their formularies, requiring a higher copay or coinsurance. They may also prefer generic epilepsy medications instead of more expensive brand-name versions. If your prescription drug plan doesn’t cover your epilepsy medication, or if your copay or coinsurance is too high, you can use SingleCare to save up to 80% on your medication.

In 6 out of 10 cases of epilepsy, the cause is unknown. In other cases, the cause can be traced to abnormalities in the brain, whether from injuries, strokes, infections, congenital malformations, brain tumors, or metabolic conditions.
There are four types of epilepsy, categorized by the type of seizures the patient is experiencing: generalized epilepsy, focal epilepsy, generalized and focal epilepsy, and unknown-onset epilepsy. With generalized epilepsy, seizures involve widespread areas of the brain. With focal epilepsy, seizures originate from one specific area of the brain. Patients with generalized and focal epilepsy experience both types of seizures. In patients with unknown-onset epilepsy, their healthcare providers aren’t sure whether their seizures are widespread or localized.
The warning signs of a seizure are different for everyone, but they may include sensory symptoms (e.g., seeing bright lights, hearing unexpected sounds, or experiencing strange smells or tastes), emotional changes (e.g., strong emotions or fears, or feelings of deja vu), or autonomic symptoms (e.g., sweating, drooling, or an upset stomach). Not everyone experiences warning signs.
About 60% of people diagnosed with epilepsy are seizure-free after a few years with treatment. They may even be able to stop treatment altogether if they’ve been seizure-free for two to five years, depending on the advice of their healthcare provider.
The best treatment for epilepsy depends on various factors, but it typically involves antiseizure medications called anticonvulsants. These medications work for about 2 out of 3 people with epilepsy. In people with focal seizures, surgery may help prevent future seizures or make them easier to control with medication.
