Genetic epilepsies typically commence in children at a very young age, often before the age of five. Detecting genetic causes is crucial, and a straightforward blood-based genetic test is recommended. Upon confirming the genetic origin of epilepsy, specific medications targeting the identified gene can be prescribed. About 80% of cases involving genetic epilepsy can be modified in treatment based on the identified gene. Therefore, effective testing is essential to streamline individualized treatment adjustments based on the detected gene. This represents the primary significance of genetic testing in managing epilepsies. Once seizures are under control, children tend to fare well and can be effectively managed with certain medications. Dr. Veronica Arora, a clinical geneticist from New Delhi, provides insights into genetic epilepsy.
