How should parents take care of a child with epilepsy on a daily basis?

Patient's question:

My baby is only 1 year old this year and has suffered from epilepsy. How should I take care of the baby with epilepsy on a daily basis?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, Due to the insufficient understanding of their own disease among children with epilepsy, and as parents of children with epilepsy, the responsibility is significant in providing proper care for these patients. Epilepsy patients should strictly follow their doctor's instructions in adjusting the types and dosages of medication. The principle is to control seizures with the least amount of medication and the lowest possible dosage. The medication period should continue for 2-4 years after the seizures are controlled.
Remember not to stop or change medication without consulting a doctor. Follow the doctor's advice on medication.
