🔍 Getting a proper diagnosis is important.
🧠 There are treatment options available.
💜 Don’t lose hope - you’re not alone.

New Year, Informed Decisions 💡

💊Supplements can boost performance, but some may interfere with seizure medication or increase risk. Ingredients like caffeine, ephedra, St. John’s wort, ginkgo biloba, and creatine may trigger seizures or reduce medication effectiveness.

👨‍⚕️👩‍⚕️ Always check labels and consult your doctor.

✨ Tried different medications and still having seizures? ✨

You’re not alone 💜

Why don’t anti‑seizure meds work for everyone?

⚡ Side effects
⚡ The wrong dose
⚡ A treatment that doesn’t match your seizure type
⚡ Lifestyle factors like poor sleep or alcohol
