Hi,
Thank you for posting your query.
I have noted your details and note that you are having a side effect of anti-epileptic medication,
sodium valproate (
encorate chrono).
The
drowsiness due to sodium valproate may reduce after a few days. If it does not reduce, you should consult your
neurologist.
Options would include reducing the dose of encorate chrono or substituting it with another anti-epileptic drug.
MRI brain would help in finding out the reason for your seizures.
I hope my reply has helped you.
I would be pleased to answer, if you have any follow up queries or if you require any further information.
Best wishes,
