Hello.If you do not get improvement of your symptoms with the mentioned drugs, your doctor should replace these drugs by other such as Levatiracetam such or Topiramate. When epilepsy does not improve with different drugs,
surgical intervention is possible in some cases. Go to your neurologist for examination and prescription.I wish you good health.
