Is Good Option With Consultant Of My Neurologist Propose Him To Gradually Shift To Herbal Medicine Like CBD Etc

CBD oil is safe for people with seizure / epilepsy, as I am declared by my neurologist medication resistant epileptic seizures, anyone have exposure with this condition, is it safe to be on CBD oil or other suitable herbal medicines?

I agree it’s a case to case! I tried for a year and suddenly didn’t work. It’s variable to every one!

Yes. But it really is a case by case thing. I would say if your Neurologist is recommending it then you should be fine. The only time it can go wrong is when you are already on meds then just start using it without any consultation.

I am on Levetiracetam, lamotrigine and locasomid, want neurologist, if he think ok, finish all these alophatic medicines to only herbal.
What my team thinks, is it OK to do so.
At the same time I can not afford any further fall due to seizure.

I meant THC is not in Epidiolex.

I would not know how much would be in a dose of CBD oil, so take the Epidiolex, which has no CBD in it. I am at a dose with Briviact and lamotragine I am controlled, if I pay attention to my Triggers.
