<s>[INST] Hi, I am Ranjit, 37 yrs old. I am diagnosed with Neurocysticercosis. Left frontal lesion on CT. I got partial sezures on right side 4 times in may be 2 hrs. After medication they stopped and didn t occur. I am taking levetiracetam( Keppra ) 500mg since a week, 2 times/Day. I was discharged and told only 1 lesion is there and anti parasite tratments are controversial. So only this tablet is enough? doctor told me to go for approx 2 years. I see in internet that 1. Steriods 2. albendazole and then anticonvulsants. I am in Auckland, NZ. [/INST] I read your question and I understand your concern. The management depends upon the parasite cyst status. If the parasite is dead then the treatment is directed mainly at seizure prevention. Otherwise, if the parasite is active as you have read steroids and albendazole treatment is used. As for Levetiracetam being the right medicine, there are many Chat Doctor.  Levetiracetam seems like a pretty good first choice, both for its wide range of efficacy in many type of seizures and for its fewer side effects compared to some other  </s>
