I started having seizure from august 2019 and since that I have had 10 seizures but for the past 5 months I have been using carbamazepine and I use that every morning but recently I used it in the morning and later at night, I had seizure while I was sleeping and my bp went high. And after 3-4 hrs it came back to normal. Now the doctor I met prescribed azitop 500 mg and he is treating me of cerebral malaria and brain infection, just in case I have an infection in the brain, I have been told to do the ct scan but I have been unable to because of the location and its hard driving to the city. And ever since I started taking the azitop 500 mg together with the carbamazepine at night before bed. I find it hard falling asleep, and I have headache. And I also feel like my brain is working so fast. Please I need advice on what to do. I am tired of having a seizure. I am worried because I was told I will be on the antibiotic drug for a while but he never told me how long. And I don't think its a good idea. Please what can I do.

What is cause of your seizure need to determined first. Otherwise proper seizure control. Is not possible. It seems that you are having a long standing seizure disorder. Further proper choice of anti-seizure medication depends on the type of seizure you had. Anti-biotics are not effective for seizure control, as of today there is no evidence of using azitop for prolonged duration in any kind of seizure. I think you should stop it.

Yes, are you still doing workout or not. If not, then start again. Do take care of pre n post workout meal. You will gain your muscle mass. In addition do this
1. Don't overeat
2. Don't take tea empty stomach. Eat something like a banana (if you are not diabetic) or any seasonal fruit or soaked almonds and a glass of water first thing in the morning (within 10 mins of waking up). No only biscuits or rusk will not do. 3. Take your breakfast every day. Don't skip it.
4. Have light meal...more
