Patient's question:
A 6-month-old baby cannot lift their head, can roll over, has a normal appetite, and shows no significant abnormalities, but sometimes they experience tremors. How can pediatric epilepsy be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
The situation you described may be caused by epilepsy and requires medication such as phenobarbital, diazepam, and sodium amobarbital for oral administration. If the effect is not satisfactory, minimally invasive surgery should be performed at the hospital. Generally, Western medicine should not be arbitrarily changed, discontinued, or stopped. Only after the epilepsy is completely controlled for 2-3 years and the electroencephalogram is normal can the dosage be gradually reduced and the medication stopped.We know that pediatric epilepsy has a significant impact on children. If it is not treated in time or if the treatment method is incorrect, its progression is rapid, which can bring great harm to young children. Therefore, parents should pay close attention to their children's condition and take them for treatment in a timely manner.
