ABSTRACT
Background : Epilepsy is a chronic condition with unprovoked seizures. One of the changes affected by anti-epileptic drugs is a decrease in bone density. Gender and sex hormones have implications on bone density.
Objective : To determine the prevalence difference osteopenia between male and female, and relationship with clinical characteristics epilepsy patients taking a combination of carbamazepine and valproic acid.
Methods: A cross-sectional study with 22 epileptic patients with age range of 18-60 years taking combination of carbamazepine and valproic acid at the Neurology Department Dr. Kariadi Semarang during June to October 2021 who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria.
