Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

In most of cases of seizure disorder, it is very difficult to find the reasons of attack. In your case, they are already on lot of drugs and if still, seizure are not getting control, better to consult a neurologist and ask him to increase the dose of the drug accordingly. Medicines help to control seizure, so there is no need to think about this. In case, you need further help, you can ask.

Thanks
