Question

What are the treatment methods for pediatric refractory epilepsy?

Answer

The main treatment methods for refractory epilepsy include medication treatment and non-pharmacological treatments. In terms of medication treatment, when a single antiepileptic drug fails to effectively control seizures, a combination of multiple medications is often considered. Non-pharmacological treatments include surgical procedures, ketogenic diet, and neural regulation therapy. When selecting a treatment plan, it should be determined based on the individual condition of the patient and the type of epilepsy.
