Patient's question:
On March 17, 2013, at night while sleeping, I made noises with my mouth and experienced muscle twitching in my mouth, then vomited, and finally lost consciousness for nearly an hour. I went to the Zhejiang Children's Hospital to take Keplar 4/1. On April 6, the same thing happened again at the same time, and I went to the hospital to take Depakine 5ml. I took Keplar 4/1 until August 1, when the same thing happened again at the same time.Doctor's answer:
Currently, epilepsy is mainly controlled through medication, with Depakine and Oxcarbazepine being commonly used due to their high efficacy. Although surgical treatment can reduce the frequency of seizures, it does not always lead to a complete cure. It is important to take safety precautions in daily life, avoiding activities at high-risk locations or near water bodies alone. During a seizure, it is crucial to protect the tongue, and in cases of prolonged seizures, immediate medical attention should be sought.
