Patient's question:
At home, there is a person with epilepsy. Currently, they are taking antiepileptic drugs every day to control the condition. However, recently, they have been experiencing occasional dizziness symptoms after taking the medication, occurring intermittently. I would like to know what to do if side effects from epilepsy medication occur.Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to the situation you described, you have a history of epilepsy and are currently taking antiepileptic drugs. All medications have side effects on the body. If an epilepsy patient experiences severe discomfort symptoms, such as diarrhea, fever, headache, chest tightness, etc., they should communicate with their doctor promptly to avoid the impact of medication side effects on the body as much as possible. We also need to go to the hospital for regular check-ups and adjust the treatment plan based on the body's recovery to achieve the best therapeutic effect.
