Some of the preventable etiologies for epilepsy that should be considered in primary prevention include central nervous system (CNS) infection, CNS parasitosis, prenatal and perinatal brain insults, stroke, and traumatic brain injury (TBI). Some factors that can precipitate or provoke seizure may include chronic sleep deprivation, alcohol use, illicit drug use, some medications that reduce the seizure threshold, toxins, homeostasis abnormalities due to organ failure, metabolic abnormalities, and medical and surgical histories that may be important in assessing the patient’s risk for future seizures.
