[|Human|] I want to know if there is a latest news about the Stem Cell Therapy for treating Muscular Dystrophy.Also my cousin is 29 years old diagnosed with simple partial seizures few months ago but the condition started since he was 21 years old but he did not take any medications because doctors said its psychological seizures ... he did MRI brain that showed brain atrophy ... EEG is normal when he diagnosed with simple seizures . the frequency now became less .there is no family history of similar condition , no head injury or stroke or other factors that lead to his illness . what is the best medication to take with less side effects if he needs to take medication .
[|AI|]  Hi,First, your cousin could have Medial temporal lobe seizure. He should have taken Carbamazepine to treat his condition. The medial temporal lobe seizure has psychological symptoms, but this does not mean it causes by psychological factors. Therefore, if he still has epileptic attacks, he should take carbamazepine 400 mg; half a tablet at 8 o'clock in the morning before meals for three days, then add half a tablet at 4 o'clock pm before meals for three days, then add half a tablet at 12 o'clock at night before meals for three days, then the dose should be increased by half a tablet every three days until the dose becomes one tablet three times per day. Second, he should measure the level of the Carbamazepine in the blood every 6 months and do liver function tests every 6 months. If he cannot tolerate the side effects of the Chat Doctor.  The stem cells therapy is promising therapy for muscular dystrophy, but it needs further trial in order to apply it on human being. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
