Can I Take Alcohol While Having Calcified Granuloma In Brain?
I am 31 years old male, I had seizure attacks two times four months ago. Since then I am taking medicine for Seizure Disorder and the doctor says it s due to Calcified granuloma in brain. I m Taking Eptoin Phenytoin Sodium 100 mg 3 tablets in bed time. I want to know that can I take Alcohol in these conditions or not?
It is better to avoid alcohol. Alcohol is an independent cause of seizures, and in a person like you, seizures can get precipitated due to alcohol. Moreover, alcohol can interact with epilepsy medicines such as phenytoin. So, please avoid alcohol.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Sudhir Kumar, Neurologist
