Patient's question:
After examination, it has been found that the child has suffered from epilepsy since childhood. They have been undergoing treatment all along. How could the child's illness improve so early.Doctor's answer:
Children with epilepsy have various types of seizures, and different medications should be selected based on the type of seizure. For example: Sodium Valproate Extended-release Tablets (Depakote ER), its pharmacological effects are effective for absence seizures, and can also be used during myoclonic seizures, tonic-clonic seizures, atonic seizures, or mixed seizures; Topiramate (Topamax) is a new anti-epileptic drug, which can be used for focal seizures or generalized seizures, and also has a good therapeutic effect on some refractory Lennox-Gastaut syndrome or infantile spasms.
