What to look for in an epileptic patient

For patients diagnosed with epilepsy, they should pay attention to multiple aspects such as regular medication, avoiding strain, regular rest, and regular diet: 1. Regular medication: epileptic patients need long-term medication to control, if they take medication intermittently, epilepsy is difficult to control and there will still be seizures. If the patient wants to achieve clinical complete absence of seizures, at least 2-3 years of medication is required. During the medication period, the patient should repeatedly measure the EEG, and the EEG examination does not have any epileptic waves, and only after 3-4 years can the patient consider gradually reducing and stopping the medication; 2. Avoid strain: excessive physical strain, including excessive brain strain, may induce epilepsy; 3. Regular rest: staying up late may also lead to seizures, so it is important to develop regular bedtime and regular sleep habits; 4. Regular diet: eating on time, because sometimes patients do not eat, hypoglycemia may induce seizures; 5, reduce caffeine intake: reduce caffeine intake as much as possible, it may increase the risk of seizures; 6, avoid flash stimulation: such as listening to concerts, the flash stimulation of lights may trigger seizures; 7, avoid working at height: avoid dangerous operations, such as working at height, climbing mountains, etc., because standing in an unsafe place Once a seizure can trigger irreversible consequences.
