The incidence of epilepsy in children has been on the rise in recent years. The actual fact is that you can find a lot of people who are not able to get a good deal on this. The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you want to do. After determining the type of epilepsy, it is important to use the right medication. Generally, one anti-epileptic drug is taken and no other drugs need to be added. However, some patients still have seizures 1-2 days after taking the medication and consider themselves ineffective, thus adding or changing medication on their own, which is very bad for the patient and may lead to refractory epilepsy. Insist on single drug first try to use a single antiepileptic drug, most cases monotherapy satisfactory, the dose from small to large, to achieve an effective therapeutic dose, can reduce adverse reactions. While having a targeted drug dose, the same seizure type or the same drug varies from individual to individual, its therapeutic dose should start from a small dose, combined with clinical effects and individualized fine adjustment. During the period of medication, whether it is reduced or discontinued, the number of doses must be reasonably arranged according to the doctor’s opinion. The medication should not be stopped or reduced at will. If a patient with epilepsy does not achieve the desired effect after receiving medication for a period of time, he or she can communicate with the doctor to change the medication or a different treatment method. When changing medications, the alternation of the two drugs requires a certain overdose period, and then the original medication is gradually discontinued to avoid recurrence of epilepsy or the development of persistent status epilepticus. Targeted treatment Because the classification diagnosis, etiology diagnosis, and localization diagnosis are different for each child, then the doctor must prescribe different medications. The treating physician should target the right medication according to each child’s physique, weight, and sensitivity to drugs, and analyze the specific situation to avoid harm to the child’s condition. If the medication is not taken regularly, it will often cause recurrent seizures. In the meantime, patients and their families should go to the doctor for regular review during the medication period to better understand the progress of the disease and thus adjust the medication.
