Patient's question:
My child at home doesn't know how they contracted epilepsy. This disease is very frightening, with seizures occurring every now and then. Basically, symptoms of hand and foot twitching reappear after a while. I want to understand how to decide when to use antiepileptic drugs? What kind of help is needed: How to decide when to use antiepileptic drugs?Doctor's answer:
The recurrence of epilepsy is generally believed to be related to abnormal discharges of brain neurons. After a recurrence, the main symptoms may include convulsive seizures, loss of consciousness, and headaches. Diagnosis can typically be made through an electroencephalogram (EEG).Since the child's condition frequently recurs, it is recommended to use Epilepsy capsules in combination with phenytoin tablets for treatment. On the basis of medication, it is essential to maintain a regular daily routine for the child, encouraging early sleep and wake-up times, and avoiding overtime.
