Patient's question:
Doctor, I have a friend whose daughter is only 4 years old this year. Because of epilepsy, she doesn't go to school. Actually, I feel quite sympathetic about it too. My friend has also been running around everywhere for her daughter. I just wanted to ask her what medicine is good for treating children's epilepsy?Doctor's answer:
If there is a recurrence of childhood epilepsy, some antiepileptic drugs can be used, such as sodium valproate, lamotrigine, or carbamazepine, for maintenance and treatment. The main approach is to adjust the type and dosage of the medication based on the severity of the recurrence, aiming to keep it within the normal range and control the condition. It is also important to avoid fever and emotional excitement in daily life, as these can increase the likelihood of recurrence.
