Beijing Epilepsy Expert: How to Treat Epilepsy?
Epilepsy (epilepsy) is a chronic disease that causes sudden abnormal discharges of brain neurons, leading to transient dysfunction of the brain. An epileptic seizure (epileptic seizure) refers to the clinical phenomenon caused by abnormal and excessive hyper-synchronous discharges of brain neurons. Its characteristic is sudden and transient symptoms. Since the location of abnormally discharging neurons in the brain varies, there are various manifestations. It can be motor, sensory or autonomic nerve with or without changes in consciousness or alertness.
Epilepsy is a common disease in neurology. Western medicine believes that epilepsy is a disease caused by abnormal discharges of brain neurons resulting in sudden and repeated neurological dysfunction. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that epileptic seizures are caused by congenital insufficiency and postnatal malnutrition, leading to qi disturbance, phlegm turbidity obstruction, gynecological inflammation, and mental confusion. Patients with refractory epilepsy mostly have phlegm-blood stasis obstruction and qi disturbance. Therefore, treatment focuses on removing phlegm, regulating qi, opening the orifices, treating spasms, resolving blood stasis and dispersing nodules. The Wen Dan Decoction used in the prescription comes from "Three-Cause Extreme-Disease-Symptom Formula Theory". It consists of Erchen Decoction plus Citrus aurantium and Bambusa. Erchen Decoction is the ancestor formula for removing phlegm. Citrus aurantium can eliminate fullness, dissipate nodules, and calm down. Bambusa can clear heat, stop vomiting, and calm down. The whole prescription has the effects of removing phlegm, lowering turbidity, harmonizing the center, lowering reverse flow, and regulating qi. It has good efficacy for epilepsy. Gallbladder South Star and Stone Calamus have the effects of removing phlegm, opening the orifices, promoting qi and stopping spasms, which are good medicines for treating epilepsy. Whole scorpion, earthworm, and leech have strong effects of promoting blood circulation, resolving blood stasis, dispersing nodules, unblocking meridians, extinguishing wind, and stopping spasms. They can significantly improve cerebral blood flow, relieve abnormal discharges of the cerebral cortex, and have important clinical significance in the treatment and prevention of refractory epilepsy. The combination of these herbs plays the role of removing phlegm, eliminating blood stasis, opening the orifices, stopping spasms, and regulating qi, thus having good efficacy for refractory epilepsy.
In the treatment of epilepsy, Western medicine mainly focuses on controlling symptoms. Clinically, about 10% to 20% of patients cannot completely control their symptoms. In addition, long-term use of anti-epileptic drugs can cause a series of side effects such as dizziness, drowsiness, nausea, vomiting, fatigue, slow reaction, and intellectual disability, seriously affecting the quality of life of patients. Combining with traditional Chinese medicine treatment can effectively control the frequency of seizures in patients with refractory epilepsy, alleviate the side effects of Western medicine, and improve the quality of life. This is a safe and effective treatment plan.
