Hello!
My name is Dr. Aida and I am glad to attend you on Healthcaremagic!
Regarding your concern, you should know that epanutin is not a contraindication to driving license, as it does not cause severe adverse effects that may interfere with driving.
The problem with the driving license is the diagnosis of epilepsy, even though under control with epanutin. Every country has its laws about epilepsy and driving.
You should discuss with your doctor on these issues.
Hope to have been helpful!
Kind regards!
