Is it true that autism increases the risk of developing epilepsy?
Unclear. A systematic review reports that about 7% of autistic individuals in pooled studies had co-occurring epilepsy, and a clinical trial protocol notes the risk of developing epilepsy in autism varies considerably. These sources indicate an association but do not quantify autism as increasing epilepsy risk relative to a comparison group.
