Your brother is having structural epilepsy with multiple drugs to control seizures. Presently he is taking tab sodium valproate which can cause jaundice. So monitor sgot and sgpt level. Frisium contains Clobazam and oxepin contains oxcarbazepine. Long run use of lol these drug can cause mild ataxia, sedation, leucopenia, allergy esp with oxcarbazepine. But we don't have it her choice. Best way in this case is to control seizures with these drugs as uncontrolled seizures will do more harm than drugsHope my answer will help you. Take care.
