Not sure whether it's Seizure or BHS ?
My 9 month old baby (9kg) Got  Breath holding Spell 10 days back which was different when compared to the previous BHS episodes where he usually starts breathing and crying within 10secs. This time it lasted for like 30 secs and His eyes were wide open for 4-5 secs and he was seemed to be tired. So Pediatrician suggested Valparin after seeing the EEG report which stated as Abnormal (she didn't check the Graph attached in EEG and she said it's a seizure by reading the report given by the neurologist in scan center). Then we started Valparin for baby -Dosage morning 1.5 ml and night 1.5 ml and I gave for 10 days. And after 10 days I visited a Pediatric Neuro and after checking by baby Doctor said this as BHS and suggested NOOTROPIL for 6 months and asked to stop Valparin. So Doctors who read this , my question is everything ok with my baby and Can I go ahead with NOOTROPIL . Is it necessary to give that for 6 months ? Any possible side effects for this .Pls do suggest me. Thanks a lot .
