Antiepileptic drugs were stopped in patients belonging to the age group between 13 to 18 yrs who were known to be suffering with epilepsy, because they were seizures free since two years and above. Complex partial seizures which were controlled with antiepileptics carried good outcome, afeile seizures had unfavorable results. Younger age of onset of seizures who remained seizure free for two years after the last seizure have lead a normal life . In summarizing, patients who were seizure free in the preceeding two years falling in the above age groups (13 to 18 years) had reasonably and safely stopped treatment with antiepileptic drugs without relapse
