Background: Long-term treatment with antiepileptic drugs (AED) requires monitoring of potential side effects, one of them is the decreasing in serum vitamin D level. Low serum vitamin D level is also a global health problem in healthy children. There are conflicting results regarding the low serum vitamin D level in epileptic children due to treatment with AED. Purpose: This study aimed to compare serum vitamin D level between healthy children and children with epilepsy receiving long-term AED treatment in Soetomo General Hospital. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study conducted in the pediatric neurology clinic of Soetomo general academic hospital from August 2018 to July 2019. Subjects are children ages 2–18 years with epilepsy receiving AED treatment for over 6 months (n=22), with healthy children as control (n=22). Peripheral serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D level were measured using enzyme-linked fluorescence assay (ELFA) method. The differences of those groups were analyzed by comparing the mean of 25-hydroxyvitamin D level of both groups using Anova and T-test (95% CI). Results: Low serum vitamin D level were identified in 27% children with epilepsy and 13% healthy children. The mean of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D level in children with epilepsy and healthy children was 21.5 ng/ml (SD 8.41) and 34.3 ng/ml (SD 10.09), respectively. There was a significant difference between groups (p<0.05). Conclusion: Children with epilepsy receiving long-term AED treatment have lower level of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D than healthy children.

Keywords: epilepsy, antiepileptic drugs, 25-hydroxyvitamin D.
