Hi

Thanks for asking.

Epilepsy is very difficult to control in some cases, even when somebody is given good doses of antiepileptic medications,it may take few weeks of constant increase in dose or adding of the new drugs to control the seizures.

There is no right or wrong dose, sometimes the dose can be very high of multiple drugs to control the epilepsy.

Thanks.
