Suggest Treatment For Partial Seizure In Child?
My daughter is 11 years old, When she was 4 yrs. she has turbuclusis mangitis in brain.After recovering from that now from last 4Months she had absence partial seizure. what will be the treatment? As she is not ready for MRI. Currently Oxmazetol 150 we are giving. Can it be cured with this.

Hi...the drug of choice for absence seizure is ethosuximide. Rather than MRI brain, I feel an EEG will be a more relevant investigation at this juncture. Oxmazetol might not be a curative option. I suggest you approach your pediatrician or pediatric neurologist with this tip. I wish your kid a bright future.
