Podcasts about seizures

This podcast is sponsored by YARAL Pharma.  In this episode, we are focusing on the management of hypothyroidism -- a treatable, but not curable condition – and will explore unique challenges for patients with hypothyroidism in long-term care – from tolerability and formulation considerations to consistent dosing and patient needs. Dr. Tamara Ruggles is not affiliated with YARAL Pharma. All views and opinions regarding hypothyroidism are solely her own and are not attributable to YARAL or the Pharmacy Podcast Network. IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION for levothyroxine sodium capsules INDICATION AND USAGE Levothyroxine sodium capsules are L-thyroxine (T4) indicated for adults and pediatric patients 6 years and older with: Hypothyroidism - As replacement therapy in primary (thyroidal), secondary (pituitary), and tertiary (hypothalamic) congenital or acquired hypothyroidism Pituitary Thyrotropin (Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone, TSH) Suppression - As an adjunct to surgery and radioiodine therapy in the management of thyrotropin-dependent well differentiated thyroid cancer Limitations of Use: Levothyroxine sodium capsules are not indicated for suppression of benign thyroid nodules and nontoxic diffuse goiter in iodine-sufficient patients as there are no clinical benefits and overtreatment with Levothyroxine sodium capsules may induce hyperthyroidism. Levothyroxine sodium capsules are not indicated for treatment of transient hypothyroidism during the recovery phase of subacute thyroiditis WARNING: NOT FOR THE TREATMENT OF OBESITY OR FOR WEIGHT LOSS Thyroid hormones, including levothyroxine sodium capsules, either alone or with other therapeutic agents, should not be used for the treatment of obesity or for weight loss. In euthyroid patients, doses within the range of daily hormonal requirements are ineffective for weight reduction. Larger doses may produce serious or even life-threatening manifestations of toxicity, particularly when given in association with sympathomimetic amines such as those used for their anorectic effects. Contraindications Uncorrected adrenal insufficiency Warnings and Precautions Cardiac adverse reactions in the elderly and in patients with underlying cardiovascular disease: Initiate Levothyroxine sodium capsules at less than the full replacement dose because of the increased risk of cardiac adverse reactions, including atrial fibrillation Myxedema coma: Do not use oral thyroid hormone drug products to treat myxedema coma Acute adrenal crisis in patients with concomitant adrenal insufficiency: Treat with replacement glucocorticoids prior to initiation of levothyroxine sodium capsules treatment Prevention of hyperthyroidism or incomplete treatment of hypothyroidism: Proper dose titration and careful monitoring is critical to prevent the persistence of hypothyroidism or the development of hyperthyroidism Worsening of diabetic control: Therapy in patients with diabetes mellitus may worsen glycemic control and result in increased antidiabetic agent or insulin requirements. Carefully monitor glycemic control after starting, changing, or discontinuing thyroid hormone therapy Decreased bone mineral density associated with thyroid hormone over-replacement: Over-replacement can increase bone reabsorption and decrease bone mineral density. Give the lowest effective dose Adverse Reactions Common adverse reactions with levothyroxine therapy are primarily those of hyperthyroidism due to therapeutic overdosage. They include the following: General: fatigue, increased appetite, weight loss, heat intolerance, fever, excessive sweating Central Nervous System: headache, hyperactivity, nervousness, anxiety, irritability, emotional ability, insomnia Musculoskeletal: tremors, muscle weakness Cardiovascular: palpitations, tachycardia, arrythmias, increased pulse and blood pressure, heart failure, angina, myocardial infarction, cardiac arrest Respiratory: dyspnea Gastrointestinal (GI): diarrhea, vomiting, abdominal cramps, elevations in liver function tests Dermatologic: hair loss, flushing Endocrine: decreased bone mineral density Reproductive: menstrual irregularities, impaired fertility Adverse Reactions in Children Pseudotumor cerebri and slipped capital femoral epiphysis have been reported in children receiving levothyroxine therapy. Overtreatment may result in craniosynostosis in infants and premature closure of the epiphyses in children with resultant compromised adult height. Seizures have been reported rarely with the institution of levothyroxine therapy. Hypersensitivity Reactions Hypersensitivity reactions to inactive ingredients (in this product or other levothyroxine products) have occurred in patients treated with thyroid hormone products. These include urticaria, pruritis, skin rash, flushing, angioedema, various GI symptoms (abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea), fever, arthralgia, serum sickness and wheezing. Hypersensitivity to levothyroxine itself is not known to occur. Drug Interactions: Many drugs and some foods can exert effects on thyroid hormone pharmacokinetics (e.g., absorption, synthesis, secretion, catabolism, protein binding, and target tissue response) and may alter the therapeutic response to Levothyroxine sodium capsules. Administer at least 4 hours before or after drugs that are known to interfere with absorption. See full prescribing information for drugs that affect thyroid hormone pharmacokinetics and metabolism. To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Yaral Pharma Inc. at 1-866-218-9009, or FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch.

Developmental and epileptic encephalopathies are a group of rare disorders that are characterized by frequent seizures that often don't respond to existing medications. These are complex conditions that involve progressive cognitive and behavioral manifestations that can pose significant burdens on patients and their families. In both clinical practice and within the biopharmaceutical industry, there has been a tendency to focus on seizure control, while often overlooking the non-seizure burdens of developmental and epileptic encephalopathies. We spoke to Amelie Lothe, global medical community head for rare epilepsies at UCB, about the need to view these developmental and epileptic encephalopathies as complex neurodevelopmental conditions, the need to go beyond seizure frequency when it comes to clinical trial outcome measures, and what drug developers can do to improve their research focus to include broader patient and caregiver experiences.

Key Points Seadon experienced his first Grand mal seizure at age three, lasting over 20 minutes, with medical staff initially believing he would suffer brain damage from the prolonged episode.Medical professionals prescribed benzodiazepines which reduced seizure frequency and severity but required continuous dose increases as Seadon continued having seizures for four years.By age seven, Seadon was taking the maximum benzodiazepine dose equivalent to an 18-19 year old but still experiencing seizures, prompting consultation with alternative neurologists.Memory impairment was identified as a significant side effect of the benzodiazepine medication, causing Seadon to forget basic daily tasks and potentially creating permanent cognitive damage.Research into natural alternatives consistently pointed to cannabis as the only viable option, though specific dosing and cultivation information was extremely limited at the time.Pharmaceutical shortage crisis forced an immediate decision when Seadon's medication became unavailable, with Health Canada offering three replacement drugs including ones with suicide risk and irreversible liver damage.Cannabis treatment began with a one-to-one CBD-THC tincture obtained from a veteran's prescription, starting with low doses while simultaneously weaning off benzodiazepines.Seadon achieved complete seizure freedom for 11 years using a customized cannabis regimen of 20-to-1 CBD-THC ratio during daytime and 1-to-1 ratio at nighttime.Memory function significantly improved after transitioning from pharmaceuticals to cannabis, contradicting common misconceptions about cannabis effects on developing brains.Legal prescription acquisition took over 18 months due to reluctance from healthcare providers to treat pediatric patients, eventually obtained through a questionable cannabis clinic charging $2,000 annually.Medical establishment resistance continued even after successful treatment, with neurologists refusing prescription renewals despite 100% seizure control and excluding Seadon from cannabis epilepsy studies.Family doctor refused to write cannabis prescriptions despite supporting the treatment results, ultimately involving legal counsel when challenged about patient rights violations.EduCanNation nonprofit was founded in 2020 to standardize cannabis education and provide proper guidance to patients, addressing the lack of reliable information and support systems.Organization connects certified cannabis educators who are primarily former patients, aiming to share evidence-based knowledge and prevent others from experiencing similar healthcare navigation challenges.

In this first half of our chat with Dr. Ewan Nurse, we explore why seizure reporting matters so much in epilepsy care. From forgotten focal seizures to the challenges of eyewitness accounts, Ewan explains why accurate seizure diaries are vital yet so difficult to achieve. We discuss research findings showing that most minor seizures go unreported(!), why some go over-reported(!), the role of memory, stigma, and psychology in diary-keeping, and the importance of involving carers in the process.

Seizures in Kids — Practical Diagnosis, Treatments, and When to Refer https://cmetracker.net/UTHSCSA/Publisher?page=pubOpen#/getCertificate/10101013   Host Holly Wayment brings us this wonderful grand rounds talk for the general pediatrician by pediatric neurologist Dr. Natasha Varughese, where she reviews childhood epilepsy syndromes (ages ~3–15), covering self-limited epilepsies, focal and generalized epilepsies, and developmental epileptic encephalopathies. Key diagnostic tools include EEG, MRI, and genetic testing; prognosis varies widely by syndrome. The talk highlights practical management: appropriate antiseizure medications (and which to avoid), indications for ketogenic diet, when to consider surgery or neuromodulation (VNS, RNS), and warning signs for referral to neurology or epilepsy specialists.

Wed July 30, 2025 Audience: Any family with a DEE who has a kid who has seizures, yes SYNGAP1 is a DEE and you are always my first audience.   See #S10e133 if you are curious about DEE vs other names. https://curesyngap1.org/podcasts/syngap10/what-is-this-syngap1-illness-disease-syndrome-ndd-dee-mrd5-nsid-actually-called-s10e133/   Action: If your kid has motor seizures, fill out the screener and join this amazing study. Link here: https://www.resiliencestudies.com/emerald   A motor seizure is a seizure where you can see something moving – including head drops, drops, convulsive, etc. – only excluded seizures are absence, myoclonia and infantile spasms.  You don't need to figure this out, just fill in the screener, let the doctors figure it out.   Questions: Come to live webinar tomorrow, it will not be recorded, so you have to come register here: https://curesyngap1.org/resources/webinars/webinar-111-introduction-to-praxiss-emerald-study-for-syngap1-patients/   TRIAL. Any DEE patient with 4 motor seizures a month, minimum. Age 2-65.  Adults are you listening? 24 weeks (6 months) weeks, placebo controlled but everyone will get drug at some point in the trial. 28 weeks (7 months) week OLE, with a chance for expanded access, so if it works, you can stay on. Fully decentralized, you don't have to go to a site if you don't want to. One US site open so far in Bethesda, there will be others.  Int'l sites in 2026.  US ENROLLING NOW. DRUG. Lots of science and big words in the links below, but here is what you need to know as a parent. It's a liquid, can go oral or in a g-tube. There is no ramp up, you put it in and it works.  In terms of speed, think Lorazepam not Lamotrigine. It's potent and specific, which means small volume.  Roughly 1ml for 10 kg.  This will be a rounding error in the face of a normal SynGAPian med regime. Even though this is a sodium channel drug, it should benefit all DEEs b/c, good to clarify tomorrow, all seizures end with a hyperactive sodium channel firing and that is what Relutragine focuses on.   PRAXIS. Serious people, lots of work on Epilepsy.  Connected to SYNGAP1 and DEEs, just need to move faster on SYNGAP1 ASO! CSO is Steve Petrou, works with SRF AUS and knows they are waiting. KD and AN started a company for SCN2A and it was absorbed by Praxis, they are still there and are relentless. Work on both small molecules and ASO, this is a way for them to see our team in action.   Cool links: AES 2024 Story. https://eppro01.ativ.me/web/page.php?page=session&project=AES24&id=2894147 Embold read out: https://www.neurologylive.com/view/relutrigine-shows-promise-phase-2-embold-study-scn2a-dee-scn8a-dee FDA Breakthrough. https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2025/07/17/3117145/0/en/Praxis-Precision-Medicines-Receives-FDA-Breakthrough-Therapy-Designation-for-Relutrigine-for-the-Treatment-of-Seizures-Associated-with-SCN2A-and-SCN8A-Developmental-and-Epileptic-E.html More links. https://delta.larvol.com/Products/?ProductId=05ccb036-a308-4249-abf6-e03b120839da   Why am I doing this? We need better meds and the way to meds is through trials. We need to jump at every trial, every time. 3. This one is decentralized, so minimum burden. If you get in now, this will be over before it's ASO trial time, so you could do both. Our Syngapians with motor seizures tend to be our most severe, we have to make sure we find out if this drug can help.  All our kids may progress to this point.   See you at the webinar, fill out the screener now: https://www.resiliencestudies.com/emerald
