What is the most effective treatment for epilepsy

summary

I have been suffering from epilepsy for several years. I have been to many hospitals, big and small. I have taken a lot of drugs and spent a lot of money. However, the disease still hasn't been treated effectively. My friend recommended a hospital, and the result is very surprising. Now let me tell you what are the most effective treatment methods for epilepsy.

What is the most effective treatment for epilepsy

First: after getting epilepsy, you must first go to a regular hospital to see an epilepsy specialist. The doctor needs to inquire about the history in detail and do necessary examinations, such as EEG, head CT, MRI, etc. only after the diagnosis can you give correct and effective treatment. Patients with epilepsy should be diagnosed and treated as soon as possible. The earlier the treatment, the smaller the brain injury, the less the recurrence and the better the prognosis.

Second: at present, the most commonly used drugs include carbamazepine and sodium valproate in traditional antiepileptic drugs, and new antiepileptic drugs such as lamotrigine, topiramate, and oxcarbamate. These antiepileptic drugs have better safety and less side effects than phenytoin sodium, phenobarbital and other old drugs, and are ideal choices for patients with epilepsy.

Third: the treatment of epilepsy advocates single drug treatment, starting from a small dose, if the single drug is ineffective, it can be considered to add or replace with another antiepileptic drug. It is suggested that western medicine should be combined with acupuncture and moxibustion in the treatment of psychomotor seizures. Acupuncture and moxibustion is effective in the treatment of epilepsy. It can control the seizure, change the abnormal discharge of intracranial nerve cells, and make the electroencephalogram return to normal. For those who take antiepileptic drugs for a long time, they usually do not stop taking drugs. With the development of acupuncture and moxibustion, the drugs gradually decrease.
