About the offer

Conservative medication treatment for ataxia might vary greatly depending on the leading causes, the current patient’s condition, and the severity of symptoms. That’s why medical practitioners should always carefully examine the patients, look through their previous medical records, and prescribe some basic lab tests before starting any treatment process. Nowadays, ataxia treatment with conservative medications might include high dosages of vitamin E combined with coenzyme Q10, 4-aminopyridine, amantadine, physostigmine, vigabatrin, and many others. Riluzole is believed to be one of the most effective drugs for cerebellar ataxia, and 4-aminopyridine shows excellent efficiency in managing episodic ataxia. Also, some patients might be unresponsive to certain medications and require an additional appointment with a neurologist to get the most effective treatment. Various anti-inflammatory drugs might be effective for patients with ataxia related to neurodegenerative diseases (e. g. , Huntington’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, Motor neuron disease, etc. ). Muscle relaxants and antipsychotics can help to decrease symptoms and, at the same time, calm down the patient.
