Suffered From TIA With Seizure Like Symptoms, On Levipil, Lobazam, Statorasp. Will It Be Cured ?

my farher (71 years old) recently suffered from TIA with seizure like symptoms. MRI , CT scan and angiogram were carried out and the doctor prescribed Levipil 500mg syrup and tablets, Lobazam 10mg, Statorasp 75/10mg. I would like to know what are the long term side effects. Whether this will be cured without any future attacks and how long the medicine should be continued?

Dear Friend,
Levipil I s a new drug with not many side effects in long term.Lobazam can have few side effects like sedation dependency and when stopped can cause sleeplessnes . ThID MEDICATION I THINK IS aspirin or clopivas with atorva statin. Thir medication prevents further attacks but life style changes are also must to prevent further attacks. These medications are generally life long

Welcome to HealthcareMagicForum

Hi.. drananth.. There will improvements in the initial few days..,
but it takes long time at least 6months to one year for complete recovery..
you need to continue above drugs,,these will cause only mild side effects..

Take care..
