Patient's question:
At home, the child has recently been fainting suddenly while playing with other children. After falling, their hands and feet keep twitching, which scared us terribly. We took them to the hospital for a thorough examination, and they were diagnosed with epilepsy. So, how should pediatric epilepsy be treated?Doctor's answer:
Hello, first of all, parents should take their children for follow-up visits. Then, according to the doctor's guidance, they should take the medication regularly and in the prescribed dosage. When taking the medication, it should be based on the principle of using the least amount of medication to prevent the onset of benign epilepsy syndrome. During the medication period, it is also necessary to visit the hospital periodically for follow-up to closely monitor the treatment's effectiveness and understand the potential side effects of the medication. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery!
