Can Long Term Use Of Carnisure Cause Any Problem In Kids?
My son's age is 7 years now & he had few (4) fits two years back & he is taking "Carnisure" and "Encorate" for two years, as suggested by our doctor.
He didn’t get any fits during these two years but one of the doctor told us that "Carnisure"'s side effect includes Seizures
I spoke to my doctor & he is not giving any explanation but told me to continue "Carnisure". Kindly advise.

Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
If your son is free from fits for 2 years,there is no need to continue
anticonvulsant drugs
Slowly taper off the drugs over a period of 3-6 months.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
Please feel free to ask any more queries if required
Take care
