    There are many methods of epilepsy, and the most commonly used method in clinical practice is still drugs, because drugs are suitable for more patients with epilepsy, and the efficacy of drugs is relatively reliable.

    For patients who have not been effective for many years, surgery can be selected according to the specific situation. Surgery** is a surgical excision of the patient's lesion directly to cut off the abnormal discharge site and stop the seizure. However, surgery** is suitable for a small number of people and the risk of surgery is also high, so it should only be considered for patients who do not respond to long-term drugs**.

    There are also diet, physics, minimally invasive, etc., compared with the first method, the diagnosis of the disease is more important, because only by fully understanding the patient's condition and choosing the right method can the onset of the disease be effectively suppressed.

Seizures are clinical phenomena caused by abnormal and excessive hypersynchronized abnormal discharges of neurons in the brain. In order to prevent seizures, it is necessary to target the root cause of epilepsy, through the synergistic effect of the "four genes", regulate the life activities of brain cells, restore the higher nerve functions in the brain, quickly block the abnormal discharge of brain neurons, promote the regeneration of new cells, repair damaged neuronal cells, and balance abnormal discharge, so as to achieve the purpose of clinical excellence.
