Question

I’ve noticed that the infant is experiencing spasms in all limbs, eyes rolling upwards, and extending their neck. The medication has not shown improvement. How should I handle this situation?

Answer

Hello, for infants with convulsions complicated by bilateral frontal subdural effusion, it is recommended to consider using a small amount of antiepileptic drugs, such as phenytoin sodium, carbamazepine, ethosuximide, and valproate sodium, which are also known as traditional antiepileptic drugs. Among them, phenobarbital, phenytoin sodium, carbamazepine, and valproate sodium are currently commonly used first-line antiepileptic drugs.
