How Many Days Does It Take To Recover From Seizure Disorder?
Question: how many days is requried to recover from seizure disorder we are eating this tablets for almost 7 years i am not recovering from this disorder please tell whats wrong with it
Brief Answer:
Continuous intake of medicines likely to be needed
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
You need to understand that antiepileptics (the medicines you are taking) increase the seizure threshold (the minimal brain activity precipitate the occurrence of seizures but that does not mean that the brain pathology stands corrected. Unless the brain problem gets completely resolved any duration of intake of antiepileptic medication might not be enough to eliminate seizures completely and increase in dose of the medicines or change might be required. If you can upload the medical notes perhaps I would be able to suggest what exactly is wrong.
Regards
