How can epilepsy be better treated?

Patient's question:

Treating epilepsy, what treatment methods are good? My boyfriend has had epilepsy for a long time, and the seizures occur at unpredictable times. I only found out about his condition after we started dating. A few days ago, while we were shopping in a mall, he suddenly fell to the ground and started convulsing, foaming at the mouth. I didn't know what to do, but thankfully, a passerby helped.

Doctor's answer:

Usually, in clinical diagnosis, treating epilepsy is a long-term process. Generally, after a confirmed diagnosis, long-term medication is required. During the treatment period, regular follow-up checks at the hospital are necessary. Based on the results of these follow-ups, the treatment plan may need to be adjusted. Some patients experience frequent relapses, at which point the treatment plan may need to be adjusted again. This is how better results can be achieved.
