The proper period of anti-seizure medication (ASM) treamtment is important for decreasing side effect of ASM and recurrence of seizure. We evaluate reliable risk factor analysis for safe withdrawal of ASM in children with epilepsy. Futhermore, we develop the scoring system for prediction of seizure recurrence to set the standard for safe withdrawal of ASM.
