Patient's question:
The video electroencephalogram shows absence seizures, during which the child's eyes are straight ahead with slight upward rolling, and occasionally accompanied by involuntary movements. The child weighs 37 kilograms. The doctor prescribed half a tablet per meal. Will this treatment be effective? How many days will it take to see results? What is the success rate of the treatment?Doctor's answer:
A child's seizure attack is a primary characteristic of epilepsy, and it can currently be controlled through medication! Advice: Antiepileptic drugs should be adjusted based on the child's control effectiveness. If the medication control effect needs to be checked, the dosage should be gradually increased. However, everyone has a different constitution, so further observation and dosage adjustments are necessary during medication. Do not stop taking the medication on your own; it requires long-term use! Currently, your child is starting with a low dose, which generally works well.
