Suggest Treatment For Seizures

I am 65 and I met with an accident but sustained no injury. My doctor says I had seizure and recommends to take Eptoin 100 3 times daily for whole life. Prior to this accident, about 4days earlier, while I was sitting on bed and reading newspaper I suddenly lost control for a fraction of second and fell on the bed but soon I regained my posture. This was the first time I witnessed this inccident. Now I am alright. My question is that do I still need this medication. I am already on the treatment of B.P. tratment and taking Nebi 2.5, Loprin 75 and Meganeuron cap. daily. Kindly advise ?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this the convulsive disorders then it need to be ruled out for grand mal seizure and it could be late onset of this, if you have not done EEG and MRI then it is advisable to get it done, in case of grand mal phenomenon one need to have medicine for long time may be for life, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
