How do patients with epilepsy regulate their condition?

Patient's question:

Doctor, my relative's child has epilepsy. He's a boy, and no one in his family has ever had epilepsy before. We don't know how he suddenly developed it. He started having sudden seizures and talking nonsense. He's currently being treated, and I'd like to ask what precautions epilepsy patients should take?

Doctor's answer:

People with epilepsy should be cautious not to drive or engage in high-altitude work on their own. During treatment, do not add or reduce medication arbitrarily. Medication should be taken strictly according to medical advice. It is best for people with epilepsy to have someone accompany them when traveling. Pay attention to diet in daily life, avoid overeating, and eat more fresh fruits and vegetables. Maintain a light diet. Rest properly and avoid overexertion. The above can serve as a reference.
