How to treat adolescent epilepsy

First of all, the treatment of epilepsy, the current commonly used method is drug treatment, but taking medicine needs a long-term process, but some people are eager for success, they feel that the effect is not good, casually stop the drug, and some parents in control after a period of time did not stop the drug under the guidance of the doctor and in the reexamination of EEG, general patients in reexamination EEG when it is not necessary to stop the drug, casually stop the drug may lead to the recurrence of iatrogenic epilepsy, this phenomenon often occurs.

It takes a long time for some drugs to reach the effective blood concentration. We should be patient enough to observe the curative effect.

Some patients with epilepsy, eager to seek medical treatment, sick disorderly medical treatment, bring great trouble to the treatment, but also affect the prognosis of epilepsy.

Finally, some people in the treatment period if the curative effect is not ideal, the attack is not completely controlled, their reaction is not to actively seek medical treatment, looking for reasons, but to run around, constantly changing the treatment plan, after suffering from the pain of epilepsy, lose confidence in the treatment, feel the hope of cure is dim, stop the drug, some patients after a period of treatment, not too much In addition, some epileptic patients and their families lack the basic knowledge of epilepsy, so they go to the doctor blindly, look for the street advertisements of "all inclusive treatment" and "all inclusive treatment" everywhere, and stop or change the medicine at will, resulting in the failure of epilepsy treatment.
