What is Epilepsy?
Epilepsy is fourth most common neurological disease affecting people of all ages. It is also called as ‘seizure disorders’. It is characterized by wide range of recurrent, unprovoked convulsions or seizures. In simple form we can understand epilepsy as disturbance in electric activity in the brain reflected in various groups of body muscles Many people affected by epilepsy have more than one type of seizure and other symptoms of neurological problem as well. There can be focal, generalized or absence of seizures. Epilepsy in a person can affect him in many areas of his life as relationship, work, driving, one’s safety etc. Epileptic seizures may be caused by injury to brain, abnormal brain development, illness or a family tendency, but the cause is often unknown. Epilepsy is a serious type of chronic disease which can relapse periodically.
Anti epileptic drugs given to the patients may range from simple allergic rashes to dangerous liver failure and many.
Homeopathic Treatment
Homeopathy proves it best in treating epilepsy in most of the cases. We do not recommend stopping allied science medication but can help as a supportive alternative treatment. A well selected homeopathic medicine can normalize the electric activity in the brain thus reducing convulsions.
Few medicines just to name are Cicuta virosa, Cuprum Metallicum, Plat.Met, Bufo Rana, Nux Vom. etc.
