How Epilepsy is Treated

  There is a patient, seizures for more than ten years, during the treatment has been; but the treatment is very irregular, mainly in several aspects: First, the medication can not be adhered to, such as the initial disease, taking a drug effective, seizure control, but a few months later, they stop the drug again, and then serve, not hair on the medication; Second, hearsay, often change the drug, especially like to pay attention to some informal advertising, believe in the propaganda, look at this The third is to take some so-called “pure Chinese medicine”. In fact, these drugs are not only expensive, and most of them contain western ingredients, some of these western drugs are already out of the medicine.  The patient came to the clinic, looked at his medical history and the drugs he was taking (many kinds of drugs, many drugs without labeled ingredients), and suggested that he gradually start changing his medication, adding regular drugs and stopping some unknown drugs in the past; with about three months, the regular drugs added reached the regular dose and number, and the previous drugs were stopped; at this time, the patient and his family were very happy that his seizures were significantly reduced; I was also very The patient and his family were very happy that his seizures were significantly reduced, and I was also very happy, because for patients who have had most of their seizures for more than 10 years and are not well controlled, by this time, even with standard medication, the results are generally poor.
