Hello,

If the current medications are not working or cause significant adverse effects there may be a need for new treatment. Levetiracetam, for example, is a new drug with few adverse effects and good control for seizures. Discuss with the Neurologist for these issues.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
