Hello,
Thanks for the query
Your fits need to be diagnosed; I mean the exact type of epilepsy needs to be diagnosed. Only then we can guide you regarding the treatment. This can be done by a long term EEG and MRI scan of the brain. I advise you to get examined by a local epilepsy specialist who will help you
Thanks
Please get back in case you need any additional information

Hi Mr Ankit,
Thank you for posting your query.
It would be better if you can upload the complete CT scan report, for me to give a comprehensive answer.
Both zeptol and eptoin are good medicines for controlling seizures.
Please get back if you require any additional information.
