Dr. Ann explains that about 70% of childhood epilepsy is treatable and can go into remission with medication. Some children may outgrow epilepsy, while others might need long-term management. For drug-resistant epilepsy, Dr. Ann might recommend ketogenic diet, Vagal nerve stimulation, or epilepsy surgery along with evaluation for their underlying cause.
