Treatment
Medicine |
Levetiracetam (500 mg twice a day) is administered orally to brain tumor patients with epilepsy for preoperative 1-3 days. Phenytoin (250-500 mg) or fosphenytoin (375-750 mg) is administered intravenously to the patients on the postoperative day 0 (POD0). Phenytoin (250 mg) or fosphenytoin (375 mg) is administered intravenously to the patients on POD1. The oral regimen of levetiracetam (500 mg twice a day) starts within 36 h of surgery and continues until POD7.
