Abstract (English): Considering epilepsy as a very important disease in the field of neurology and a public health issue, we must remember that in addition to the biological treatment we offer to this disease, the treatment and knowledge of the social sphere of the patient with epilepsy is essential for the good control and the personal, social, work and academic development of patients with this pathology. In addition to making decisions regarding drugs or treating patients with epilepsy, we must guide them and their families about legal, work and sports issues, car use, and the degree of academic requirements to which they owe or can submit. That is why we gave ourselves the task of answering questions that are commonly a topic of interest in the epilepsy consultation and answering them with scientific evidence, which will give us tools for better care and guidance of patients and their environment.

Abstract (Spanish): Considerando la epilepsia como una enfermedad muy importante en el campo de la neurología y un problema de salud pública, debemos recordar que, además del tratamiento biológico que ofrecemos a esta enfermedad, el tratamiento y el conocimiento del ámbito social del paciente con epilepsia es esencial para el buen control y el desarrollo personal, social, laboral y académico de los pacientes con esta patología. Además de tomar decisiones con respecto a los fármacos o el tratamiento de pacientes con epilepsia, debemos guiar a estos y a sus familias sobre los requisitos legales, laborales, deportivos, de uso del automóvil y el grado de requisitos académicos a los que deben o se pueden presentar. Por eso nos dimos a nosotros mismos la tarea de responder preguntas que comúnmente son un tema de interés en la consulta de epilepsia y responderlas con evidencia científica, lo que nos dará herramientas para una mejor atención y orientación de los pacientes y su entorno.
