The scientific treatment of epilepsy: don’t blindly “supplement the brain” Epilepsy, commonly known as “piggy bank” and “sheep epilepsy”, is a recurrent brain disease. 70% of epilepsy patients can be cured with regular treatment. The majority of patients with epilepsy can be cured after 2-5 years of complete seizure control, but a small percentage of patients with intractable epilepsy require lifelong drug therapy. As a result of recurrent seizures leading to cerebral ischemia and hypoxia, neurological impairment of the brain, as well as side effects of drugs and congenital dysplasia of the brain, many patients with epilepsy have reduced intelligence and memory learning ability, which seriously affect work and quality of life. Therefore, it is particularly important to protect brain function and promote brain development while treating epilepsy. Seizure control is the key: epileptiform wave discharges and recurrent seizures (especially grand mal seizures) are one of the main causes of impaired brain function, so appropriate drugs should be selected to control seizures or reduce them as much as possible. However, care should be taken to avoid drugs that have a significant impact on cognitive function, and the pros and cons need to be weighed. For example, in children with epilepsy, avoid using phenobarbital, topiramate, clonazepam, etc. and choose a new generation of antiepileptic drugs or a combination of Chinese and Western drugs whenever possible. The most important thing is that the patient’s brain is in its prime developmental stage, so it is imperative to protect the brain function. The choice of drugs is particularly important, and the commonly used drugs are: Chinese patent preparations for the brain and tranquilization (such as Brain Ling, Brain Tranquilization Tablets, Brain Fuqing, Brain Tranquilization Tablets), brain neurotrophic drugs (such as vitamin B complex, Olacetam, Aniracetam, Lysine, etc.). The “brain” can not be too exciting brain: epilepsy patients should also be careful with the brain treatment, “brain” improperly will be counterproductive or even lead to increased seizures. The “brain tonic” for epilepsy can only nourish the brain nerves, not excite them. The most important thing is that you should be careful with the drugs that you are using or forbidden to use: cerebral protein hydrolysate, ATP, cytidylcholine, choline, pentoxifylline, brain activator. 4. Chinese medicine is safe and reliable: Chinese medicine has a profound culture and technology, and has unique efficacy for many difficult diseases, and it is also safe and reliable for epilepsy and its brain protection treatment. The treatment of epilepsy and its cerebral protection is also safe and reliable.
