Epilepsy is a heterogeneous condition requiring individualized treatment, and a substantial number of patients are treatment-refractory. Neurologists consider many factors when selecting an antiepileptic drug (AED) and must make adjustments throughout the patient’s disease course to achieve optimal seizure control. Understanding the evolving patient journey in epilepsy provides important context about the complex, saturated, and heavily generic market that developers of new AEDs will enter. We provide national patient-level claims data that show the use of key therapies in both newly diagnosed and recently treated patients, line of therapy progression, and persistence and compliance by brand.
