Antiepileptic Drugs and Memory

See below a link to a research article by epilepsybehaviour.com discussing the common complaint of patients with epilepsy – impaired memory. See below a short extract from the article:

“Delineation of the effects of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) on memory in clinical populations faces methodological difficulties. Further, subjective perception of memory problems by patients is influenced by mood. However, there is evidence from animal and healthy volunteer studies supporting an independent potential for AEDs to impair memory.”
