Question

What should I do if there are side effects from epilepsy medication treatment?

Answer

The treatment of epilepsy often requires taking multiple medications to control the condition. However, these medications may bring certain side effects to the patient’s body. Long-term use of these drugs may lead to a decrease in the patient’s immune system, making them more susceptible to other diseases. These side effects may have negative impacts on both the physical and mental health of the patient, even potentially causing psychological shadows that affect their social and mental well-being. Therefore, patients should closely monitor their physical condition during treatment and regularly communicate with their doctor to adjust the treatment plan in a timely manner, reducing the impact of drug side effects.
