Patient's question:
My cousin had a car accident when she was young and developed epilepsy. She has taken many medications, but it hasn't improved. Is it because the medication isn't effective?Doctor's answer:
When diagnosed with epilepsy, one must be prepared for long-term or even lifelong medication. Therefore, taking medication regularly is a very normal phenomenon. However, as long as one follows the doctor's advice and maintains good living and dietary habits, it is entirely possible to recover on one's own. There are many treatment methods for epilepsy, but since patients exhibit different symptoms, the diagnostic approaches also vary. Therefore, patients need timely and thorough examination and diagnosis to receive appropriate treatment.
