Methodology: The research approach used for this study was quantitative research approach. A pre-experimental design was adopted for this present study. By using convenient sampling technique, 30 antenatal mothers were selected for the present study. Results: The present study reveals that in pre- test level of knowledge, majority 24 (80%) of them had inadequate knowledge, 5 (16.7%) of them had moderate knowledge and 1 (3.3%) of them had adequate knowledge. In post-level of knowledge, majority 15 (50%) of them had adequate knowledge and 15 (50%) of them had moderate knowledge on anticonvulsant drugs among antenatal mothers. Conclusion: The study findings concluded that after the intervention the post-test level of knowledge showed majority of them had adequate knowledge on anticonvulsant drugs among antenatal mothers. There is significance association between educational status with the levels of knowledge of anticonvulsant drugs among antenatal mothers where ‘p’ value is < 0. 05.
