Patient's question:
I found that my younger brother has been having constant twitching and has been lacking energy today, so I rushed to take him to the hospital for outpatient check-up. The examination results revealed that he suffers from epilepsy, and it's quite severe. We are very worried, so I would like to ask how to treat epilepsy in children?Doctor's answer:
For the treatment of pediatric epilepsy, it is not only necessary to consider the efficacy of the drug but also whether its side effects can be tolerated by the child. The treatment of epilepsy is a chronic process. Family members should have confidence in the treatment. Epilepsy is not an incurable disease. As long as active treatment is carried out, medication is used reasonably, and a scientific treatment plan is implemented, the effects after treatment can be seen. For epilepsy, the most reliable prevention is to take antiepileptic drugs on time.
