Hi,

Mr Ramesh,

Thank you for posting your query.

Your mother has epilepsy and she is getting frequent episodes of seizures (fits) despite taking oxmazetol (oxcarbazepine).

There are several other good medications, which can be used in her, such as levetiracetam, sodium valproate, lamotrigine, Topiramate, etc.

However, I would need the details about her epileptic fits, MRI brain and EEG reports to decide the correct medicines.

I hope it helps.

Best wishes,
Dr Sudhir Kumar MD DM (Neurology)
