World Epilepsy Day is celebrated in more than 140 countries. Every year, on the second Monday in February, epilepsy awareness is promoted around the world. <\/span>Epilepsy is the most common chronic neurological disease with a prevalence of about 1 percent, which means that around 50 million people of all ages worldwide have epilepsy, with an increased incidence in children and the elderly. Around six million people in Europe and around 40,000 people in Croatia suffer from epilepsy. The risk of premature death in people with epilepsy is three times higher than in the general population.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Epilepsy is a chronic disease that can be effectively controlled today, and over 70 percent of people with epilepsy can live seizure-free if they have access to appropriate treatment.<\/span><\/p>\n
