Hi,
Epival is used to treat seizures, which is what it sounds like your cousin had. Seizures can be very treatable with medication, and there are a lot of ways to manage them. I'm glad he hasn't had any episodes since starting the medication! He should continue seeing a neurologist regularly to make sure he is well-controlled on his dose.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
