summary

Because of my sister's epilepsy, we often take her to treatment. Doctors will also prescribe some effective drugs to control the development of the disease.

What is the new method that treats Capricorn wind

First: drug therapy. At present, drug therapy is the main treatment for epilepsy at home and abroad. Epilepsy patients after regular antiepileptic drug treatment, about 70% of patients with their seizures can be controlled, of which 50% - 60% of patients after 2-5 years of treatment can be cured, patients can work and live as normal people. Therefore, reasonable and regular antiepileptic drug treatment is the key.

Second: if infants and young children will not swallow tablets, the application of syrup preparation is not only conducive to children taking, but also convenient to control the dosage. When children choose drugs, they should try to choose the drugs that have no effect on cognitive function, memory and attention. The elderly have more comorbidity, more drug combination, more drug interactions, and the elderly are more sensitive to antiepileptic drugs, with more prominent side effects. Therefore, the interaction between antiepileptic drugs and antiepileptic drugs must be considered in elderly patients.

Third: after regular antiepileptic drug treatment, there are still about 20% - 30% of patients with drug-resistant epilepsy. Surgical treatment of epilepsy provides a new treatment for this part of patients. It is estimated that about 50% of drug refractory epilepsy patients can be controlled or cured by surgery, which improves the prognosis of refractory epilepsy to a certain extent.
