Patient's question:
When having a seizure before, I would foam at the mouth, and my face would be tense and frightening. During the recurrence, I was still conscious. Each time it recurred, I felt extremely painful. When treating epilepsy, taking clonazepam orally for 2 years or more can have side effects?Doctor's answer:
Any drug has certain side effects that may cause harm to the liver and kidneys, and some may also lead to recurring abnormalities in mental and behavioral patterns. It is recommended to have regular check-ups in the neurology department of a hospital. The doctor will improve relevant tests based on your symptoms, medical history, and medication use, such as blood tests, liver and kidney function tests, and electrolyte tests. These follow-up indicators will be used to adjust the medication accordingly. In daily life, maintain a light diet, avoid spicy, stimulating, and greasy foods, and consume more vegetables, fruits, and other vitamin-rich foods.
