How pediatric epilepsy is medicated

Patient Question: Disease:Pediatric epilepsy medication Description of Disease:One day in December 2011, I took him to get a vaccination. When he came back, his spirit began to appear abnormal, manifesting itself as when he was playing, he suddenly squinted his eyes to the right and his facial expression was dull. He laughed from time to time and did not respond to being called. After about thirty to forty seconds, he returned to normal. Started to cry more than, at that time thought it was shock. So I found someone to show him and prescribed a little scare medicine. But the condition was not controlled, then went to the city’s psychiatric hospital. Diagnosed with epilepsy and prescribed a bottle of clonazepam tablets. Hope to provide help:After he took this medicine, his condition was under control. Hasn’t had a seizure, but has been on it for a year and a half and went for a recheck the other day. The doctor said that the EEG showed that he still has epileptic waves in his brain and to continue taking it. He is growing up and I am worried that taking this medication will affect him too much. I don’t know if I can cure the root cause even if I keep taking it. I am very conflicted and don’t know what to do. I hope you can give me an answer in your busy schedule. !!!!
