What should I do if I run out of epilepsy medication?

Patient's question:

During a seizure, the whole body convulses, the tongue is clenched tightly, sometimes foam is expelled from the mouth, the eyes roll back, and there is no awareness. It feels like dreaming in consciousness, as if falling from a high place. It may scream, and then wake up suddenly. The seizure lasts for about four or five minutes. Hope the doctor can recover quickly. Thank you!

Doctor's answer:

A seizure is caused by abnormal discharges of brain neurons due to damage to neurons. Medication can only control seizures by inhibiting the excitability of brain nerves but cannot repair damaged neurons. The treatment of epilepsy has become a major challenge in the medical field. Therefore, after being diagnosed with epilepsy, do not panic. You should choose a regular hospital and adopt a scientific approach for treatment. Only with the right methods can you bid farewell to the disease.
