Can Stopping Trika Forte Cause Seizures?

Hi Doctor, I mother took Trika Forte for a long time almost 15-18 years. For past 3 years she stopped taking this medicine. Currently, she started to have seizures at random and after 24-48 hrs of the seizure event, she is back to normal, but complains of headache, we got her MRI, CT and other tests done however all are normal. Could this be due a side effect of Trika Forte, what do you suggest. Regards Sam
