FAQ
What does determine the epilepsy treatment cost?
The epilepsy treatment cost depends on what therapeutic method a patient will undergo — medication therapy or surgery.
Before prescribing the therapy, an epileptologist carry out a complete examination of a patient. For example, specialists in the Teknon Epilepsy Institute provide electroencephalography (EEG) monitoring for 3 days.
During the procedure, a patient receives antiepileptic drugs. The doctor can immediately track the effect of drugs on the brain, replace it or adjust the dose. If the drugs do not work, an epileptologist send a patient for the surgery.
What method of epilepsy treatment cost higher?
70% of people with epilepsy receive medication treatments. The medication treatment cost is rather lower than surgery, because there is no intervention. However, a patient have to buy the drugs after they run out.

- type of surgery
