  • Any family with SSPE (Subacute Sclerosing Panencephalitis) Condition – Like to know about treatment

    Unfortunately there is currently no curative treatment. Only supportive measures to improve the quality of life of patients. As anticonvulsants or pain treatments. Some antivirals have been tried, but without success. The most important thing to prevent this disease from happening is adequate vaccination. Currently in Argentina, cases of measles are reappearing and this is due to imported cases from people who traveled to countries where vaccination rates are low, either due to health problems or anti-vaccine movements. We must have our children's calendar and our own calendar properly updated.
