How can epilepsy be cured?

The regularity of epilepsy is really important.

The so-called "regular**", simply put, is early diagnosis, accurate selection of drugs according to the type of epilepsy, after determining the best dosage, long-term regular taking, can not be interrupted at will, and only after the "seizures" are effectively controlled, can the drug be slowly reduced or stopped. Anti-epilepsy** is a very long process, and patients must persevere, insist on taking the drug uninterrupted and regularly to ensure that the blood concentration is always within the effective range (because everyone's ability to absorb oral drugs varies greatly, and patients need to take the drug for a long time, which is both effective and reduced***. Generally, it is unreliable to calculate the dosage of the drug based on the patient's weight alone, so it is necessary to determine the dosage of the drug by taking blood to test the concentration of the drug in the blood, and to draw blood before taking the drug) to maintain the efficacy, irregular medication is often the main reason for not being able to control the seizure.

Stopping the drug is a process of gradually decreasing the dose of the drug, do not stop the drug abruptly, the sudden stop of the drug will cause seizures, and in severe cases, it will cause status epilepticus and be life-threatening.

The principles of antiepileptic drugs are: start small, use alone, take regularly, take a long course of treatment, reduce the drug slowly, and repeat it regularly.

There are many types of clinical seizures in epilepsy, and there are many types of anti-epileptic drugs, and the types and effects of effective anti-epileptic drugs are also different. Therefore, under the guidance of a doctor, the most appropriate medication should be selected according to the type of seizure the patient suffers from**. It should be reminded that there can be several drug options for a certain type of epilepsy, and the individual differences of patients are also very large, and it is difficult for doctors to choose the drugs that are effective the first time, and they also need to be constantly observed and adjusted.

In addition to taking medication on time and in accordance with the amount, epilepsy patients should also maintain a regular life and avoid staying up late, drinking alcohol or taking drinks that may cause excitement; Such as coffee, strong tea, etc. You should also avoid being anxious and angry, maintain a stable and optimistic mood, maintain a normal life and work, and don't give up on yourself because you have epilepsy.

Many people are very worried about the development of anti-epileptic drugs, thinking that taking medicine for a long time will make their brains stupid or inseparable from medicine for a lifetime, but in fact, these views are wrong. Anti-epileptic drugs are some***, but after all, they are limited. Especially in the case of correct medication, not only can seizures be controlled, but drugs can also be avoided, and the amount of antiepileptic drugs taken for a long time should be the minimum dose that can control seizures.

At the same time, there is also a need to change the mindset, even if there is a slight drug***, it will recover after stopping the drug. So far, there are many informal hospitals that administer unknown so-called "traditional Chinese medicine" to patients in the name of traditional Chinese medicine**epilepsy, and when we measure the blood drug concentration of patients, we find that the blood contains a variety of Western medicine components. Patients need to be cautious when choosing drugs!

Hope it helps!

Epilepsy takes a relatively long time, and it is important not to rush it, and it is important to adhere to the long-term norms! It is necessary to clarify what causes epilepsy and how the drug works in order to make a targeted **. If the doctor recommends you to use levetiracetam, you can use Xia Jiyike, and the feeling of domestic levetiracetam tablets is that the effect is not bad, the seizures are much less, and the adverse reactions are also less.

Epilepsy is a chronic disease of sudden abnormal discharge of neurons in the brain, resulting in transient brain dysfunction.
