Health education is a powerful tool which can have a positive impact
on both drug adherence and self-management skills of PWE. Previous
studies have proven the role of structured health education programs
in improving seizure control and enhancing satisfaction with therapy
in PWE with a moderate to high educational background. We conducted
a randomized controlled study to assess the effect of a structured educational
program on drug adherence and self-care measures in a cohort of
PWE with low educational background attending the epilepsy clinic of a
tertiary care hospital in India.
