Researchers are making progress on a new “on demand” epilepsy pill which can be taken when people feel a seizure starting. The pill has been developed by a team at University College London, UK, led by Professor Dimitri Kullmann.
The Epilepsy Network is a worldwide community of people with epilepsy, family and friends, uniting to talk about their experiences, learn information about epilepsy, ask questions and so much more! Don’t let epilepsy defeat you, let it inspire you!
I hope to hear more about this exciting breakthrough. I have a son who has a simple seizure periodically but they are strong enough he stops breathing, performed CPR several times. Recently had one at Epcot in fl in an elevator. Scary but he seems to be good now. I would love to be able to stop his seizures as they show sign of it starting. I’ve been able to identify the signs before the last two he had. Seizures are like 6 months apart and now three months apart.
Well, this would work fine for someone that has auras before they have a seizure, however I have Gran Mals with no warning.
