Dear Mr. lybrate-user it is a very noble thought of helping the girl in need, but let me caution you that she needs to be properly evaluated before any medication can be prescribed, she needs some blood tests an x ray of the head and an eeg at least before the treatment can be started, since you are in allahabad and the motilal nehru medical college is in your city please assist the family in getting to the hospital and the girl investigated, its a govt college and for them the treatment and investigations will be free so please advise them so.
