Hi XXXXXXX
Thanks for writing in.
1. Different side effects are often seen with the drugs that you are taking when you switch brands. They are related to availability of drug and speed of release of drug. You should switch back to your earlier drug.
2. In order to help you further, I would like to know the following:
a. How long have you had epilepsy?
b. When was the last attack? How frequently do you get these attacks?
c. What are the EEG findings?
Awaiting your reply
Regards
Dr Pratap
