Epilepsy is a brain disorder that can affect people of all ages which is one of the most common neurological disorders affecting around 50 million individuals. Healthcare Chatbots schedule appointments, respond to patient inquiries, and offer relevant information, freeing medical staff to handle life crises. This paper implements a chatbot for epilepsy patients to increase awareness about epilepsy. Patients may easily access this AI-based healthcare chatbot whenever they have queries regarding precautions to be taken by epilepsy patients. Chatbot uses a rich set of epilepsy-related datasets collected from trusted websites which are preprocessed with NLP techniques to prepare the data for model inputs.DNN, LSTM, and RNN models are created and evaluated to produce answers to user queries related to possible precautions to avoid seizures, safety measures to be taken by patients with seizure history, etc. Evaluation of models shows that the RNN model generates more accurate answers with 94% accuracy. Finally, the epilepsy question answering Chatbot for precaution is concluded with the RNN model. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
