Current Medication:
Your medication, Valparin Chrono 500, is typically used to manage seizures.
Effectiveness:
Weekly seizures suggest your current regimen may not be fully effective. Consult your neurologist to reassess your treatment plan, which might include dose adjustment or additional therapies.
Monitoring:
Regular follow-ups are crucial to monitor seizure frequency, side effects, and possibly blood levels of valproate.
Safety:
Valproate can have side effects, especially in older adults. Your doctor will aim to balance seizure control with safety.
Specialist Consultation:
If not already done, consider consulting a neurologist or epilepsy specialist for a comprehensive evaluation.
Note: Do not change or stop your medication without consulting your doctor.
