overview
Effective measures for the primary prevention of epilepsy include reducing the chance of possible epilepsy causes to happen including Head trauma, Hypoglycemia, Cerebral palsy, Electrolyte disturbances, fever, drug abuse and Vitamin deficiency and reduce the seizure triggers such as sleep deprivation, fever, light flashing, hyperventilation, alcohol, physical stress such as physical exercise or illness, psychological stress and depression.
Primary Prevention
- Effective measures for the primary prevention of epilepsy include:
- In healthy people, we can prevent epilepsy by reducing the chance of possible epilepsy causes to happen such as:
- In patients who already have epilepsy, we can reduce the seizure triggers such as:[8][9][10]
- Sleep deprivation
- Fever
- Light flashing
- Hyperventilation
- Alcohol
- Physical stress such as physical exercise or illness
- Psychological stress
- Depression
