  • Infantile Spasms is a rare form of age-specific epilepsy that usually presents itself in children within the first year of life. Early diagnosis and treatment of Infantile Spasms is of the utmost importance, and in many cases can ensure a more positive prognosis and a better quality of life, and significantly increases the chances of achieving reaching normal child development milestones.
    In honor of Infantile Spasms Awareness Week, share this video with friends and family, and help us bring awareness to the world.

    Thank you for posting this helpful video. I am going to share it with my blog readers next week. Some friends of ours are presently going through the diagnosis process since their toddler recently started having unidentified spasms. The father has epilepsy, which perhaps made them quicker to recognize something was wrong.

      The point is to not wait for a very long period of time. Like if a pediatrician appointment is scheduled within 2-3 days you might not need to go to an emergency room. But if have to wait for long periods of time it is better to go to an ER to prevent brain damage

    My little girl was diagnosed with IS when she was 3months old.
    fortunately she responded well to treatments and now she is 2years and 8 months.
    she is doing well and everything about her is normal like her peers but her amazing doctor hasn't reduced dosage of medicines yet.
    Sometimes I can't stop overthinking about future and what's going to happen if she stops taking medicines? I read an article that children with IS may develop other kinds of seizures or epilepsy...😨

      My daughter too. She was first diagnosed with Infantile Spasms at the age of 4 months. Indeed it often comes. Very often. Everyday... We seek treatment by seeing a pediatric neurologist since the diagnosis. I've tried many drugs too. Including Sodium Volpreate, Vigabatrin, Prednisolone, etc ... i'm still remember that she was struggling & restless when its comes. But, after a few years of treatment, she is better now. No more new episode of spasam @ seizures on 2019 till now. Now, Damia already turns 7 yrs old.

We took him and she helped us and he was seem by a neuropediatrician next day. He was them admitted to the hospital in order get an eeg and mri done asap. Luckly it was not as bad as infatile spams but he was having seizures. He is now fine. Taking medicines twice a day.

Hope it will be both effective but somehow I am curious about the sabril because I heard a lot of parents they said it is effective.

      My child's doctor told me the same thing when she was a baby. Even as she got older her would push my concerns away and tell me she was fine "she's just lazy" because she didn't crawl until 18 months and didn't take her first steps until she was 2 1/2.
      Fast forward to now. She's 8 yrs old. At 4 they did an EEG and MRI. She has epilepsy from a traumatic brain injury before birth. I wish I would've listened to my gut.

      We went to children's hospital, then transferred to pediatric specialty hospital and now getting EEG in the morning. Doctor said it is seizures. But with EEG exam will know more information and start medication. Keep pushing the doctors, insist and go with your gut. Take videos of your child and show them to the doctor. You know your child best and they need you to fight for them. Hope your baby gets help soon!
