Hi,
Welcome to Hcm,
I understand your concern. If eeg test done and neurologist suggested possibility of epilepsy then the treatment he is on now is good enough. His symptoms should show improvement in due course of time and dont worry, it can be durable, however, it usually takes a duration of 6 months to 2 yrs of therapy. So have belief and continue the best that is possible for the child. Take care.
