Question
During an epilepsy seizure, the eyes roll back and the limbs twitch. Why does the seizure recur after taking oxcarbazepine tablets?
Answer
Oxcarbazepine tablets are a commonly used medication for epilepsy treatment, which can effectively control seizures but does not guarantee complete cure. Epilepsy treatment currently mainly relies on medications such as Depakene and oxcarbazepine, although surgical treatment options are available, surgery does not necessarily eliminate seizures completely. Patients should pay attention to safety in daily life, avoid going to high-risk areas alone, such as near water. During a seizure, the tongue should be protected to prevent injury. If there is a prolonged epileptic state, immediate medical emergency care should be sought. Timely and professional treatment at a specialized hospital is crucial for pediatric epilepsy to prevent the deterioration of the condition.
