title: [Complex therapy of idiopathic forms of epilepsy with small doses of valproates and levetiracetam].
abstract: A combination of valproates in dose 15-25 mg per day and levetiracetam in dose 20-25 mg per day was used in the treatment of 23 patients with different forms of epilepsy (juvenile myoclonic epilepsy, juvenile absence epilepsy, convulsive idiopathic generalized epilepsy and children absence epilepsy). The use of these drugs was effective in all forms of epilepsy. There were positive changes in the frequency of seizures and epileptic activity in the EEG.
