Hello!
Welcome on HCM!
Regarding your concern, I would recommend taking carbamazepine or valproic acid in his clinical situation.
These drugs can be used in epilepsy and also in behavioral problems and aggresivity.
Another drug to consider would be clonazepam. It can help reduce the aggressivity and also anxiety.
You should discuss with his doctor on the above treatment options.
Hope to have been helpful!
Kind regards, Dr. Aida
