NCT ID NCT05673915
First seen Jan 05, 2026 · Last updated May 23, 2026 · Updated 25 times
Summary
This early study tests whether a mild electrical current applied to the scalp (tDCS) can reduce the number and strength of seizures in people with epilepsy. About 30 adults whose seizures are not controlled by at least two medications will receive the treatment and track their seizures in a diary. The goal is to see if this non-invasive brain stimulation offers a new way to ease symptoms.
