What to do about non-epileptic tonic seizures

Non-epileptic tonic-like seizures generally do not require treatment; the patient is kept safe during the seizure, and medication assists if necessary. Non-epileptic seizures are transient episodes of abnormal behavior that are not accompanied by abnormal electrical activity in the brain, and non-epileptic tonic-like seizures are one of them. They do not affect intellectual development and gradually disappear with age, and their seizures tend to stop around the age of 1 year. Typical symptoms include breath-holding, pale skin, fainting, gastric reflux with laryngeal muscle spasm or loss of voice, night terrors, and episodic staring. After the seizure, the patient can recover and there is no abnormal discharge in the EEG during the seizure. Patients should be protected from head trauma and asphyxiation during seizures, and frequent seizures can be treated with medication under the guidance of a doctor, generally using drugs to reduce muscle tone such as baclofen, but also with antiepileptic drugs such as valproate to control symptoms and improve the progression of the disease. If the diagnosis of non-epileptic tonic-like seizures is confirmed, you should seek medical treatment in time and under the guidance of the doctor, and should not use medication without authorization, so as to avoid delaying the condition.
