More than half of the children/adolescents having epilepsy were adherent to their anti-seizure medication(s). Children's adherence to anti- seizure medications was influenced by current marital status of the parents/caregivers, controlled seizure status, getting appropriate healthcare in the hospital, caregiver's knowledge; and attitude towards epilepsy. More efforts are required to scale up the provision of client-centered service (provision of appropriate health care delivery, focus on quality of treatment and providing health education/counseling to improve caregivers' knowledge and attitude towards epilepsy) to improve children's adherence status to their medication(s) and seizure control status.
