Managing mood problems in elderly patients with epilepsy
Epilepsy is more common in elderly people than it is in younger age groups. Yet, its recognition in older people is hampered by atypical presentation and non-specific symptoms. Mood problems frequently occur in elderly patients in relation to epilepsy, especially depression and anxiety. Treatment of these symptoms may have a greater impact on quality of life than reducing seizure frequency.
