I take Keppra for this. My doctor here in Arkansas said I could also take some cbd product to help. Since cbd is new to Arkansas my Dr. had no advice as to dosage or brand of cbd product. His advice was basically to experiment like it was a dietary supplement from WALMART. Do you have any information that might help me find out what cbd product might be good for me?\"\n_____________________\nHello and thank you for your question,\nCannabis is now very well  known for it's efficacy as an anti-epileptic medication. In fact, the  walk in clinic I also work at receives several referrals from the  neighboring Children's Hospital for their seizure patients; I myself  have treated patients as young as three.\n\nThe story that really  put cannabis in the spotlight as an effective anti-epilectic was the  story of Charlotte Figi, a beautiful child who was suffering from up to  300 grand mal seizure per week! She was eventually treated with a cbd  oil which reduced her seizure frequency down to two to three times per  month; that's about a 99% improvement! That cbd oil that was eventually  branded as Charlotte's Web.\n\nTherefore, I would recommend a cbd  oil to ingest as daily prevention while also carrying a pen vaporizer  loaded with a cbd cartridge to use if you experience an aura - i.e. a sensory warning that a seizure is about to occur. I recommend a vape pen  in the above scenario since a vape pen is the quickest delivery method  available. Therefore, when/if you experience an aura, you could  hopefully get a dose in before the seizure starts.\n\ndrkim\n_____________________\nExcellent CBD oils:\nhttps://www.hellolift.com/products/5b57a95202f1740001522f9f/cbd-hemp-oil-drops\nhttps://www.hellolift.com/products/5b57b4c702f1740001523089/cured-full-spectrum-raw-oil\nExcellent CBD vapes:\nhttps://www.hellolift.com/products/5bb53ed015dd427039a0a351/relax-vape-pen\nhttps://www.hellolift.com/products/5b5770d702f1740001522c60/cbd-aches\nI hope this helps!\n\ndrkim","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_9104-markdown","title":"Is it safe to take cbd oil with lamictal for absence seizures?","slug":"is-it-safe-to-take-cbd-oil-with-lamictal-for-absence-seizures","content":"\"My son takes 60 mg of lamictal, two times a day.  His seizures are under control, but it affects his mood.  Is it safe to incorporate cbd oil with his treatment?\"\n_____________________\n *Always check with your doctor* BUT yes CBD would be beneficial to take as a supplement to your son's lamictal prescription. I highly recommend looking into products like Evie’s Drops from CBD Alive or Jayden Juice CBD Tincture.  \n\nstonedmermaid\n_____________________\nHi there! I am not a doctor and don't have experience with this, so please do not take this as medical advice. I would encourage you to take a look at this article: https://unitedpatientsgroup.com/blog/2016/03/02/guest-post-a-fathers-perspective-personal-experience-clinical-studies-show-high-cbd-cannabis-provides-mood-stabilization-for-bipolarschizophrenia\n\nIt sounds similar to  your situation, and I would read the comments below the article as well. A lof of people have chimed in on this, and for many of them, their children were taking Lamictal when they introduced them to CBD.\n\nHopefully one of our doctors will have a chance to give you some advice as well. In the meantime, I hope this information is helpful!\n\nmelissa\n_____________________\nOften parents do use CBD to supplement and/or wean off of traditional antiepileptics.  However, dosing of the CBD can be tricky, and there are known medication interactions between CBD and AEDs, so this is definitely a journey you need to undertake with the full cooperation of your neurologist.  I hope it works out well for you.\n\ndrbultman","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_8215-markdown","title":"If using CBD pills (Care by Design 18:1) to treat potenial seizures, what is the daily dosage? ","slug":"if-using-cbd-pills-care-by-design-18-1-to-treat-potenial-seizures-what-is-the-daily-dosage","content":"\"My mother, the patient, is the in hospital for possible seizures but they're still not sure if it is indeed seizures. They may be sending her home on seizure pills that she does not need. I want to put her on CBD oil that can help if these are seizures...and can also help her in other ways (anxiety, depression etc)\"\n_____________________\nDid you see the movies, \"Weed, Weed II, and Weed III\"? These are three CNN documentaries you can watch on YouTube about using CBD for seizures in children. I love care bye designs products but I think when you're treating seizures you need a more exact dosing technique. I would not hesitate to recommend Jayden's Juice because it comes in a bottle with a measured dropper and you should keep records as to how much is used and the response obtained at each dosage.\nOf course you must have an interview with a physician or NP and with your mother present to obtain a card for her to legally use CBD's and you could be a caretaker for your mother but you must also be present for the interview.\n\ndrolson","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_10017-markdown","title":"What do you recommend for seizure disorder?","slug":"what-do-you-recommend-for-seizure-disorder","content":"\n_____________________\nHello and thank you for your question,\nCannabis is now very well known for it's efficacy as an anti-epileptic medication.

Sativas generally treat nausea more effectively than do the other forms of cannabis.
