What Is The Treatment For Epilepsy?

Hi doc I m a 22 old fellow who suffers from seizer disorder and I have been having valparin 200 for more than 6 yrs, 3 times a day. Before I took the meds I had 15-18 tremors in a day but now its reduced to twice or thrice in a week. I do sleep more that a avg guy of my age and also feel lethargic, one would say I m short-tempered too. Are these side-effects of the meds? Are there any more? Do u suggest I reduce my dosage? Kindly throw some light on the issue. Thanking you, Waiting for your reply
