Can integrative Chinese and Western medicine treat pediatric epilepsy?

Patient's question:

Doctor, hello! I would like to ask if there are many diseases that can be effectively treated with integrated Chinese and Western medicine now. Can pediatric epilepsy be treated with a combination of Chinese and Western medicine? Is the effect of integrated Chinese and Western medicine much better than treating with only one method?

Doctor's answer:

When the child is relatively young and it is clear that they have epilepsy, one should consider congenital epilepsy, and the other should consider intracranial inflammation-induced epilepsy. Regardless of the cause, long-term oral medication can reduce the child's stimulation and help control epilepsy seizures. The combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine treatment methods may not be very effective. Therefore, it depends on your own situation. You can try to focus on it, but the effectiveness is uncertain.
