Question
How do I treat epilepsy? My six-year-old nephew was diagnosed with epilepsy in May and is currently on medication, but still has a seizure once a month. What kind of medicine does your hospital use for epilepsy treatment? How long does the treatment process usually take?
Answer
Western medicine is more effective in controlling epilepsy. During the treatment process, attention should be paid to keeping the child warm, reducing emotional fluctuations, and avoiding sudden discontinuation or change of medication. Generally speaking, epilepsy requires lifelong medication.
