Why Different types of seizures may occur?
Different types of seizures may occur:
1) Generalized or tonic-clonic seizures, where the entire brain curtex is involved and post seizure disorientation may last for a few minutes to few hours,
2) Petit nzal or absence seizures which involve no post seizure fatigue or disorientation, and
3) Partial seizure. s, where there is an epileptogenic focus in the brain tissue, but electrical activity may spread across the entire brain.
The type of seizure determines the drug therapy and nutrient requirement.Anticonvulsant drug reactions are of relevance in nutritional management.
