To assess the efficacy of treatment with encephabol, we examined 40 children, aged from 3 to 5 years, with developmental dysphasia. All patients were randomized into two equal groups: group 1 received encephabol (suspension form, daily dosage 200-250 mg, or 12-15 mg/kg) during 2 months; group 2 did not receive this medication. In the first group, there was a significant improvement of expressive and impressive speech and speech attention; the active vocabulary and a number of phrases in colloquial speech increased by a factor of 3 versus 1.5 in the control group. After the treatment with encephabol, the parents reported the decrease in motor disturbances, psychosomatic disorders, the improvement of attention and the emotional state of the children.

Epilepsy is one of the most frequent and difficult for treatment co-morbid disease of cerebral palsy. In therapeutic aspect, the difficulty of the problem is defined by the necessity to combine the active restoration of motor disorders with a regime of antiepileptic treatment. It leads frequently to stopping the restoration process and aggravation of patient’s motor disability. The diagnosis of epilepsy in the child with cerebral palsy should in no way discontinue the rehabilitation measures, albeit in case of the concomitant pathology a plan of rehabilitation scheme should be adjusted. The pharmacological control of epileptic seizures should be the first step of the new rehabilitation scheme. Epileptologists usually conduct the selection of multi-component antiepileptic treatment in patients with drug resistant epilepsy, however a neurologist of an outpatient clinics who follows up the patient in different stages of development and rehabilitation should play a key role. The authors suggest the general treatment tactics for children with cerebral palsy and epilepsy by the neurologist of the polyclinics.
