epilepsy treatment

Epilepsy treatment aims to prevent seizures, mostly using medications called antiepileptic drugs that stabilize brain activity. Most people respond well to these medications, which are tailored to their specific seizure type. For some, surgery or other therapies like nerve stimulation may be options if meds don’t work. Lifestyle adjustments, such as regular sleep, avoiding triggers, and managing stress, also help. The goal is to control seizures while minimizing side effects, enabling individuals to lead active and safe lives. Regular medical follow-up ensures the treatment remains effective and any adjustments are made as needed.
