Juvenile myoclonic epilepsy is a type of primary generalised epilepsy. It wil get good response with encorate. But there is chance to recur once you stop it. Usually encorate is the drug of choice. We usually switch to another one only if encorate is not tolerated. For more details ,you can consult me.

Encorate chrono can be taken in kidney disease provided it is controlling your seizures.
Else you can switch to a safer alternative like levetiracetam.

Asked for male, 36 years old from Kannur

Hello Dr. I recently found out that my blood sugar level is 153 mg/dl in fasting. When I checked in evening it's showing 157 mg/ml. Do I need to start any medicines. Or controlled diet and exercises will help to reduce it?

I suggest a blood test called as Hba1c to confirm. It will help decide whether medicines need to be started in addition to diet and exercise.

Asked for female, 29 years old from Thane

Hi, I have been diagnosed with cysts in both my ovaries and it pains a lot during periods. I get regular periods. But there is a pricky pain even during regular days. I got my ca125 test done and the value is higher upto 408 mg/ml. Is this dangerous or a sign of ovarian cancer?

Dr. Nandeesh Bm92%(1498 ratings)

Do not worry. Sometimes even during benign tumors ca125 will be more. Go for further diagnosis like biopsy.

They are different type of drugs and in your case need both to be taken. Keep seeing your neurologist every 3 months he will recognise side effects like weight gain etc. Also read the instructions with the packet it will tell you side effects.
