Patient's question:
What medications are good for elderly epilepsy? Is the cause of epilepsy in the elderly really due to aging? Is there anything that can prevent epilepsy? What should be noted? How is epilepsy generally treated?Doctor's answer:
If elderly people experience symptoms of epilepsy again, they can take oral neurotrophic drugs for medication treatment. A head CT scan can be performed for a thorough examination to understand if there is a possibility of recurrent cerebral blood supply insufficiency. If there are changes in cerebral blood vessels, oral drugs that expand blood vessels can be taken. These medications can also be supplemented with the method of wearing headphones to alleviate hearing loss. Additionally, it is important to enhance nutrition and consume more high-protein foods.
