All this r internal processes. Best medicine which suit to son. If one seizure is there you have to restart n the day count is one again.
You consult neurophysician. Regular follow up is must. Gardenal, is still best medicine.
But now a days sodium valproat is used.

Im searching a best seizure medicine which has very low side effect and which do not effect to liver, kidney heart and others organs, my neuro doctor has offered me to choose one medicine from "phenytoin, carbamazepine, oxcarbazepine, eslicarbazepine, sodium valporate, topiramate, levetiracetam, lamotrigine, diavalporex, phenobarbitone, currently i'm taking clobazam 12.5 mg and lacosamide 200 mg per day but nothing improvement. I feels suddenly extreme difficulty till 30 to 50 second, I always remain conscious at that time and can talk with anyone but that difficulty what I feels which is unable to express in words. My mri report show: ring shaped cortical/ subcortical lesion with eccentric dot and blooming on swi and calcification on phage image in the left hippocampal formation with minimal peripheral gliosis/edema. Findings represent calcified granuloma most likely related to neurocysticercosis. Other diagnostic consideration is tuberculosis. 2. Mild increased signal and volume loss of the left hippocampus as compared to right. Finding are suggestive of left mesial temporal sclerosis. Clinical correlation is suggested" while I do eeg test when normal condition always show normal eeg but when 30-50 second extreme difficulty happen during eeg show abnormal ieds: left anterior temporal and there are few sharp wave discharge starting from left anterior temporal region. Now according some above report which medicine is the best for me please suggest. I want to change medicine lacosamide and clobazam. Thank you.

Every medicine affects some organ systems. As they get metabolised or excreted or turn into active metabolite. Levetiracetam does not affect liver and is well tolerated but it does negatively affect kidney function.

Chest pain may be associated with coronary arteries that appear “normal.” Normal is defined here as no visible disease or luminal irregularities as judged visually at coronary angiography. But we have to look into the details of the problem.
Let's have a detailed discussion to Ensure proper treatment.

Rifagut is a luminal antimicrobial that is not absorbed and acts on gut lumen. It can also kill the normal microbiota of the intestine which could result in diarrhoea. I would like to see your cect report and also tell me the course of your illness. After this information I could suggest you better. For relief you can drink ors in water for now.

Garoin 50 mg/100 mg Tablet is a combination of two antiepileptic medicines: Phenobarbitone and Phenytoin. It controls seizures or fits by decreasing the abnormal and excessive activity of the nerve cells in the brain.
You can take both the ingredient medicines together instead of combination tablet and you will need a prescription

Gardenal definitely has some side effects in baby. But if you stop it, you may get epileptic attack, that is detrimental to you as well as your baby. Hope, your gynaecologist has advised you the number of tests (blood and USG) to detect the defects in the baby (which are very easily detected at this stage)... Now, regarding your previous miscarriage, I don't know if you had undergone investigations to find out the cause of miscarriages (ideally to be done before pregnancy). Now, you don't have m...more
