Epilepsy can occur with Normal MRI.
we call it idiopathic or cryptogenic epilepsy.
Prognosis in such cases remains good and most patient do well with small doses of anti epileptics.
Zeptol is good anti epileptic but Sedation is a side effect. But don't worry....it will subside over few week.....and if persistent tgdn try another drug....for u I would suggest tab Levetiracetam.
