Can an autistic child develop epilepsy?
short by / on Monday, 16 June, 2025
Up to 30% of autistic children experience seizures. Shared genetic and neurological factors link autism and epilepsy. Early diagnosis and targeted treatment—medications, ketogenic diets, or neuromodulation—can significantly improve outcomes. With medication, diet changes and medical guidance, seizures can be managed effectively—so your child gets the support they need.
