Suggest medication for hallucinations for a person with downe's syndrome
human
I need to find a physician in the Southington Ct area to care for a 59 year downe syndrome male He has recently had szisures with a rather long seizure thanksgiving night.  He spent several days in the hospital and has had a DVT in left leg which has been taken care of.. He is now hallucinating and seeing very strange things.. The doctor he is seeing now says he does not have much experience with downes and has given him an anti depressant to see if that helps..  I am not really comfortable with the care and would like to find someone who understands more... Thank you

HIThanks for using healthcare magicSometime due to seizure, patient get psychotic symptoms in form of hallucination. I think, you patient may be have post ictal psychosis. In that case, controlling of  symptoms will be done by antiepileptic drugs. If he needs antipsychotic, then low dose quetiapine can be tried. Rest discuss with his physician.Thanks
