Lacoset 10mg Injection Health Feed

Asked for Male, 5 years old from Delhi

Followed by a seizure, my wife was diagnosed with Glibastoma 4 with inoperable tumors on left and frontal lobe. She has finished 6 weeks RT with Temodol. She is on Livipril 1000 tbd, Lacosamide 100 tbd and Dexa 4 mg tbd (to be tapered down to 4 mg once). From next week her 5/23 cycle for Temodol will start. Her main issue loss of language and speech that started with seizure has still not improved a bit. Besides location of tumors, Which of these drugs may most likely be contributing to neuro deficit? Can some symptomatic drug be used to get her back to speech n language issues? Can Nootropics or adhd drugs such as concert help or be tried without side effects. Will the adjuvant 5/23 temodol help in nuerodeficit recovery in due course? Does speech therapy help in tumor induced language and speech loss? Help from Allopathic, Homeopathic and Ayurvedic physicians is requested.

There is no medicine to give speech and language. Speech and language therapy is the only solution to improve her communication.

Asked for male, 30 years old from Mumbai

Hi, My mom is 55 years old, she underwent head (brain operation) 11 years ago due to a clot in the head. Currently she is undergoing neurological treatment since she becomes unconscious for few seconds due to seizures in brain. She is consuming, (Oxetol 300+300+150=750 mg, Lacoset 100+100=200 mg, Levepsy 500+500=100 mg and Nexito 10+5=15 mg) per day. Recently she had low blood pressure and we underwent an ecg test and her heart rate was 58. These were the results of ecg (HR 158bpm, PR interval 158ms, QRS duration 82ms, T duration 178ms, QT/Qtc 422/425ms, P/QRS/T Axis 67.4/45.8/46. 4 degree, R (V5) / S (V1) 0.55/0.35mV, R (V5) + S (V1) 0.90mV) Conclusions - Sinus Mode Bradycardia, Cardiac electric axis normal, aVL V4 V5 V6 Abnormal T wave. I assume the heart rate is low due to the medication she is undergoing? Please advise.

These do not usually cause bradycardia. Do a net search, first search for active ingredient of each of these medicines, next search: ingredient adverse effect sinus bradycardia for each of them.

Hello, I am not very much convinced that you have complex partial seizures, the granuloma though in temporal region can induce seizures but the sequence is not suggestive at all according to the information you have posted. You can try a video eeg to further investigate the cause for same.

Asked for male, 59 years old from Delhi

When I was small I use to faint on one ocassion of the other. At the age of 19, I developed some unpleasantness in my body. I was told that it is not stomch problem rather schizophrenia. I took medicine and did a lot of exercise I became normal. Subsequently, at the age 31 the same problem replapsed. This lasted for two years & medicine and exercise were of no help. Subsequently, I improved through some homepathic medicine. At the age of 50, the same problem began and I fainted on several ocassions. After thinking it to be again a' psychiatric problem, I was told that it is' seizure. I took medicine for 4 years but all through I was not the same self. When the doctor reduced medicine the seizure once again recurred. At age of 56 years I am both on psychiatric medicine (nexito 10) and neurological medicine (3 eptoin & 1-2 lacoset). What is the problem with me? is it going to last for the remaining years of my life? does schizophernia at an earlier stage becomes epilepsy in the later stage of life? as per horroscope moon means mind and 6th house means desease. My simple strength moon is the 6th house. Moon also means mother. My sister was born 11 months after my birth and hence separated. When I was borne there was heavy rain and there was moon in the sky. On fool moon day i. E. Lunar the lunatics in an assylum are told to see the full moon.

Are you sure with your diagnosis. Kindly consult psychologist first. I think you fell down be cause of only epilepsy. But I dont feel it will be schizophernia.

Dear Ram,
The problem you are facing is being treated as Epiulepsy. you may have to furnish more details about he nature of episode you are having, in view of the existing lesion in temporal lobe i would like to consider Epilepsy as the main disorder and will like to increase the medication to correct dosage. If the episodes are not controlled with clobazam and Lacosam it may be worthwhile changing to other anti epileptic medicine under supervision.

Ssri (sertraline, fluoxetine, paroxetine etc) can cause some electric sensation in the head/brain called 'brain zaps' it is especially when you suddenly discontinue the medication.
