A better way to treat epilepsy

Disease analysis: The best treatment for epilepsy is drugs and surgery. After any type of epilepsy is diagnosed, there are at least two schemes. If one medicine can't be used, replace it with another. After observing each drug for more than 3 months, 60%-70% of epilepsy can be recovered by drugs. Surgical treatment includes minimally invasive and open surgery. Combined with stereotactic EEG, we can find the starting point and perform micro-resection, such as temporal lobe epilepsy.

The treatment of epilepsy mainly includes drug treatment and surgical treatment, and internal medicine is often the main treatment. When drug treatment is ineffective, surgical treatment can be considered. Epilepsy can go to epilepsy clinic, and drug treatment is mainly in neurology. There are many kinds of drugs to treat epilepsy, and it is necessary to decide which drug to use according to the type of epilepsy. Carbamazepine and sodium valproate are commonly used epilepsy drugs, and diazepam is the first choice for grand mal. In addition, sodium valproate and levetiracetam are also very useful drugs, which need to be determined according to the type of epilepsy.

When long-term oral drug intolerance, you can go to neurosurgery to treat epilepsy. The key to surgical treatment of epilepsy is to determine the location of epileptic focus. Preoperative evaluation is relatively complicated and needs professional neurosurgeon's operation. After the location of epileptic focus is determined, the epileptic focus can be surgically removed to control epilepsy.
