Suggest Treatment For Recurrent Seizures

Long term antiepileptics are essential.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on Healthcaremagic.
I have gone through the details and understand your concerns. Since he already has had a number of episodes of seizures it is very important to put him on antiepileptics like Valparin. The benefits of the medicine are more important and cannot be done without. Hence you need not get concerned. If the seizures keep occuring, the damage so caused to the brain would be far fetched and in comparison the possible side effects are insignificant. I hope you understand.
I would insist you to keep Midazolam spray handy. In case seizures occur, immediately put 2 puffs in each nostril and that woudl stop the seizure from continuing. Valparin suppository has a faster onset of action but the effect also wears off faster. So continue with oral Valparin for scheduled doses. Suppository can be given if there is high fever and giving oral medicines is a problem.
