A member asked:
Could you tell me ways to stop seizures other than a higher dose of medication?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Avoid triggers: Several provocateurs include medications, recreational drugs, stressors, infections, chemical and metabolic imbalances, alcohol abuses. So, handle these if present. Might consider switching a different med. A vagal nerve stimulator helps very well in many.
