The Best, The Very Best Treatments For PVL

Medication

Sad news. No meds treat PVL itself. No, none! But men, hold up. There are meds for PVL symptoms! Yes, there are. Kids with PVL need different meds for different symptoms. Anticholinergics tackle tremors, uncontrolled spasms, and yes, spasticity too! It doesn't stop there. Anticonvulsants are a strong, strong type of med for seizures when kids get them with PVL and cerebral palsy. They'll also handle the spasms, tremors, and spasticity!

Low mood is very, very common in kids with PVL. Emotional regulation is tough too! Men, that's when docs prescribe antidepressants for PVL. Obviously, tight, tight muscles in PVL and cerebral palsy mean pain and inflammation. That's when kids need some anti-inflammatories! And when they've got digestive problems? A stool softener will come to the rescue!
