Clinical trials: Dissociative Seizures
Convulsion, Non-Epileptic, Conversion Disorder
Treatments for Psychogenic Nonepileptic Seizures (NES)
The investigators propose that treatment of the comorbid disorders (depression, anxiety, and impulsivity) with sertraline in patients with lone psychogenic nonepileptic seizures (NES), will result in a decreased number of NES.
