Can epilepsy be cured under normal circumstances?

Epilepsy is a very common chronic brain disease. It is a stubborn disease caused by many reasons, resulting in sudden and repeated movement, sensation, mental and other disorders of brain neurons. Epilepsy not only causes physical harm to patients but also brings unspeakable pain to their families. Epilepsy is a particularly torturous disease. Except for severe cases that are difficult to cure, most others can be controlled.

Under normal circumstances, is there no cure for epilepsy? Of course, there are many treatments for epilepsy, such as: drug treatment, surgical treatment, etc. Different treatments should be used according to the severity of epilepsy. Let’s take a look at the specific treatments below.

1. Drug treatment. The drug treatment method for epilepsy is based on the principles of early use, sufficient dosage, accurate medication and long duration. Once epilepsy is diagnosed, medication should be taken immediately to control epileptic seizures. The drug dosage must be sufficient to control epilepsy and prevent drug toxicity reactions. Blood drug concentration can be checked if necessary. The choice of medication is determined by the type of epilepsy or syndrome. Generally, the medication can be stopped only after the attacks have stopped for more than 2 years.

2. Diet therapy: It mainly involves using a diet formula with a high fat content and a low protein and carbohydrate content to produce ketone bodies in the body, thereby simulating the body's response to hunger to treat diseases such as epilepsy. For epilepsy that is difficult to control with medication, dietary therapy may be considered.

Surgical treatment: The surgical treatment of epilepsy mainly focuses on safely removing the brain tissue that causes epileptic seizures, namely the epileptogenic zone (seizure starting area). Only after the epileptogenic zone is removed can the patient be free of seizures after surgery.

Are you still worried about not being able to find a good way to treat stubborn epilepsy? Then choose the above methods, there must be one that suits you. A healthy body is everyone's pursuit. I hope that patients with epilepsy will recover soon, no longer suffer from the pain, completely walk out of the swamp of epilepsy, and move towards a more wonderful life.
