I read your question carefully and I understand your concern. Seizures are a common complication of stroke, affecting about 5-10% of stroke patients. There are many antiepileptic drugs available which can be used to prevent further seizures. For the moment your doctors have already started such a drug which is Zeptal CR, one of the most used drugs for that purpose. So for now you should see how effective it will be in preventing your husband s seizures. You state he s alright now, so no reason to change. Only if he gets other seizures can some other treatment be considered (like valproic acid, lamotrigine, levetiracetam etc). I hope to have been of help.
