Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thank you for posting your query.
I appreciate the detailed description provided by you regarding your son's recent
epilepsy and the treatment received so far.
In the initial period after starting treatment, a child may get seizures, as the level of drug in the blood may be low, and also a lower dose is started.
If the child continues to get seizures, then, the dose of
keppra may be increased, or an another drug may be added.
In the meanwhile, please upload the reports of EEG and
MRI brain.
I hope my reply has helped you.
I would be pleased to answer, if you have any follow up queries or if you require any further information.
Best wishes,
