Question
A ten-year-old child has been on epilepsy medication for four years and has experienced another seizure. Does this mean the condition has worsened? Is it possible for epilepsy to be completely cured?
Answer
There are various treatment methods for epilepsy, including medication, surgery, and treatment of the underlying cause. If conventional anti-epileptic drugs are ineffective or for intractable epilepsy, surgical treatment can be considered. However, surgery also has its indications and should be approached with caution. askPediatric epilepsy medication for over 4 years and then relapse - is it a worsening of the condition?
