More Information

Anticonvulsant drugs

Anticonvulsants or antiepileptic drugs are the drugs used to treat Epilepsy or Convulsions. Epilepsy is a chronic brain disorder in which person encounters the uncontrolled and repetitive activity of body muscles known as Seizures or Convulsions. Epilepsy is not a single disease; it is a cluster of different signs and symptoms originating in a variety of people with different reasons.

The common underlying reason is an imbalance in brain’s electrical activity. There is the transmission of wrong signals by neurons that leads to recurrent episodes of sensation; loss of consciousness and increases the risk of physical injury. In this, an epileptic patient may experience recurrent seizures. 

Causes of Convulsions:

The main cause of the disease is the disturbance in the normal activity of neurons due to brain injury. There are various triggers that can cause this disease, some of them are:

• Brain tumor
• Trauma and other CNS infections
• Genetic susceptibility, Chromosomal disorders
• Infectious diseases like meningitis, viral encephalitis, and AIDS
• Overdose of antidepressants or poison
• Prenatal injury

Signs and Symptoms:

Indications vary from person to person. Common signs and symptoms associated with this problem are:

• Temporary confusion
• Staring, fainting
• Jerking of arms and legs
• Tics, Twitches or tremors abnormal body movements

Seizures can be classified in three main groups

• Generalized seizures are the seizures affect almost whole part of the brain 
• Focal or Partial seizures are the seizures takes place in the smaller part of the brain. It is of two types one is simple and other is complex one.
• Status epilepticus is an acute life-threatening condition that occurs due to persistent seizures lasting for more than 30 minutes or more.

Adverse effects of the problem:

While having epileptic convulsions or ‘fit’ the person experiences a stiff and jerk. The patient is not able to hold his bladder, he may become unconscious or may bite his tongue. The condition of such a patient is very difficult to handle.

Preventive measures:

The best thing a patient suffering from convulsion and epileptic disorders can do is that he should try to avoid the triggers like:

3. Low sugar levels
4. Use of drugs like cocaine and heroine

Myths and facts:

• Myth: Epilepsy affects intelligence

• Fact: No, the patients with epilepsy have the same level of intelligence as those with epilepsy. It is very difficult to learn new things if the seizures are frequent, but convulsions cannot lower the intelligence levels of the patient. 

• Myth: During seizures you can swallow your tongue

• Fact: No, it is impossible to swallow anything with tongue during seizures. Therefore it is necessary that nothing should ever go into the mouth of the patient during a ‘fit.'

Diagnosis of convulsion conditions:

The various diagnostic measures includes general blood tests, kidney function test, liver function test, EEG (Electroencephalogram) used to record brain waves to detect any kind of abnormal electrical activity of neurons, and scans the electrical activity and damaged area of brain. in some cases various tests are also needed to see the structure of brain to help doctors identify the presence of some cysts or tumors, the common tests are:

• MRI
• CT scan
• PET

Treatment for convulsion conditions:

A convulsion is not curable. However, we can improve the symptoms. If the seizure doesn’t end naturally, then it could be life threatening. There are few steps of first aid which one person should always keep in mind.

• Loose tie or anything around the neck which will make breathing difficult
• Don’t hold the person down or try to stop the body movement
• Stay with the person until the seizures end naturally
• If not, take him/her to Hospital
