Patient's question:
My friend suddenly fainted a few weeks ago and kept twitching. They were taken to the hospital and told it was epilepsy. How can epilepsy be treated?Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, if you have epilepsy, it is best to go to a professional department in a regular hospital for relevant examinations. A small portion of epilepsy can be treated through surgery, mainly using anti-epileptic drugs. Therefore, in this case, you should undergo brain computerized tomography (CT) and other related examinations, and then use appropriate medication. Currently, it is widely recommended to use one drug first to verify the success of monotherapy before adding a second drug.
