Question

My child is five years old and has been diagnosed with pediatric epilepsy since infancy. He has been on medication to control the condition, but he still experiences frequent seizures. I am seeking advice on how to manage recurrent seizures in children.

Answer

It is suggested to use traditional Chinese medicine such as ginkgo biloba, amber, antelope horn, musk, etc. to treat recurrent seizures in pediatric patients. These herbs have the effects of supporting the body’s natural defense mechanisms, calming the mind, promoting blood circulation, removing dampness and cooling blood, awakening the brain and changing its nature, strengthening the spleen and replenishing qi, and nourishing essence and marrow, which can fundamentally restore the functions of internal organs and is an effective treatment for epilepsy. At the same time, it is advisable to consult a professional doctor for personalized treatment recommendations.
