Weaning from ketogenic diet therapy in children with epilepsy: Insights from a retrospective study

Our findings underscore the importance of individualized KDT discontinuation plans based on efficacy, EEG activity, and ASM burden. Although prolonged weaning was more common in responders, weaning duration alone did not predict outcomes. These results highlight the need for prospective studies to define optimal weaning strategies for KDT.

Abstract

Our findings underscore the importance of individualized KDT discontinuation plans based on efficacy, EEG activity, and ASM burden. Although prolonged weaning was more common in responders, weaning duration alone did not predict outcomes. These results highlight the need for prospective studies to define optimal weaning strategies for KDT.
