Frontal lobe epilepsy can be treated with medication or surgery depending on the patient’s symptoms, and there is no such thing as the best results.
1. Drugs: anti-epileptic drugs and anti-psychotics are mainly used for treatment.
(1) Antiepileptic drugs: Traditional antiepileptic drugs include carbamazepine, oxcarbazepine, etc. However, for patients with refractory epilepsy, newer antiepileptic drugs can be added to supplement the treatment, such as Toltaic and Lamotrigine, which are commonly used.
(2) Antipsychotic drugs: Because the physiological function of the frontal lobe determines that frontal lobe epilepsy is often combined with psychiatric symptoms, so during frontal lobe epileptic seizures, it can be treated with antipsychotic drugs, such as commonly used thioridazine and so on.
2. Surgery: Frontal lobe epilepsy can be treated with surgery if long-term medication is ineffective. Surgical methods mainly include frontal lobe lesion resection, cortical epileptic lesion resection, multiple subchondral transverse fiber excision, and so on.
Specific treatment methods and the use of drugs, need to be under the guidance of a professional doctor, combined with the patient’s condition to choose.
