Can people with epilepsy take sodium valproate?

Patient's question:

Could you please ask the doctor if it is okay to take sodium valproate for epilepsy?

Doctor's answer:

Many antiepileptic drugs are effective in controlling epilepsy, but their effects are only temporary, and they have more side effects. Long-term use of these drugs can lead to severe memory impairment, delayed reactions, liver and kidney function failure, and other serious consequences. Epilepsy is a chronic brain disease caused by abnormal discharges from damaged neurons in the brain. It is recommended to use patching to explain the abnormal pulses of damaged neurons in the brain and their spread range. Targeted patching is sufficient to prevent epilepsy attacks.
