Progress in Epilepsy Treatment in Nigeria: Improving Care and Quality of Life

This article explains the symptoms, seizures and epilepsy treatment in Nigeria. The brain is the seat of all conscious activities. It controls and coordinates all body functions by sending out messages that trigger the rest of the neurological and muscular systems into action. Sometimes, a sudden disruption in this brain function might result in faulty neurological messages. It causes intermittent muscular seizures, a condition that is commonly known as epilepsy.

What is epilepsy?

Epilepsy is a health condition that is mainly characterized by recurrent seizures that occur as a result of a dysfunction in the neurological system. Every action we take, whether planned or involuntarily, is initiated by electrical impulses sent from the brain, which are then translated into the contraction and relaxation of muscles.

For instance, if you want to read this article with your forefinger. This thought is processed in the brain and transmitted via electrical impulses to the hand, then stretched out by muscles in the forefinger. Then, just the right amount of contact is made with the screen or keyboard; all these happen within a few seconds.

In a person with epilepsy, there is a loss of control in the neurological system, resulting in the release of an excessive amount of electrical impulse that causes recurrent seizures. During an attack episode, a part or the whole brain may be affected, causing the person to partially or lose consciousness. Until the brain regains control of the neurological system, full consciousness returns.

Epilepsy Symptoms

The most common epilepsy symptoms are seizures, convulsions, confused memory, loss of bladder control, and tiredness.

Different types of epileptic seizures depend on the part of the brain that triggers the condition. These include:

• Partial seizures are when only a part of the patient’s brain is involved, causing the patient to have partial consciousness during the seizure.
• Generalized seizures occur in both halves of the brain, resulting in total loss of consciousness.
• Secondary generalized seizure: Here, the seizures begin partially before spreading to affect both halves of the brain, eventually leading to a loss of consciousness.

Seizures and Epilepsy Treatment in Nigeria: A Multifaceted Approach to Enhance Patients' Quality of Life

Epilepsy, a neurological disorder characterised by recurrent seizures, requires a comprehensive treatment plan to minimise the frequency and intensity of these episodes. Like many other countries, healthcare professionals in Nigeria employ various approaches to provide effective care for individuals with epilepsy. Here are some of the most notable methods used for epilepsy treatment in Nigeria:

1. Medications (Anti-Epileptic Drugs - AEDs)

• Anti-epileptic drugs (AEDs) are the cornerstone of epilepsy management in Nigeria. These medications are typically administered orally and suppress seizures by stabilising electrical activity in the brain.
• The choice of AEDs is highly individualised, with healthcare providers tailoring prescriptions based on the patient's specific seizure type and medical history.
• Commonly prescribed AEDs in Nigeria include sodium valproate, carbamazepine, and levetiracetam.
• Regular monitoring and adjustments to the medication regimen may be necessary to optimise seizure control and minimise side effects.

2. Surgery

• In some cases, epilepsy may not respond adequately to medication, or there may be an identifiable structural abnormality in the brain causing the seizures.
• Neurosurgeons in Nigeria may recommend surgical intervention to address these underlying issues. Epilepsy surgery can involve removing the epileptic focus or disconnecting abnormal neural pathways.
• Surgical options have shown promising results in reducing or eliminating seizures for some patients who did not respond well to medication alone.

3. Herbal Remedies

• Herbal medicine and supplements have a long history of use in Nigeria and other parts of the world for various health conditions, including epilepsy.
• Some individuals with epilepsy in Nigeria may explore herbal remedies as complementary or alternative treatments.
• Herbal extracts often contain bioactive compounds that can influence neural function and provide benefits in epilepsy management. One notable approach is vagus nerve stimulation through herbal elements.
• While herbal remedies may offer potential benefits, it's essential for individuals considering this approach to consult with qualified healthcare professionals to ensure safety, efficacy, and appropriate dosage.

Epilepsy treatment in Nigeria is evolving, with healthcare providers continually striving to enhance the quality of care and outcomes for patients.
