Can Levipil Cause Internal Bleeding?

My grandfather has epilepsy and he is taking levipil 500 once in the morning and once in the evening and 2 months back he underwent a burr hole surgery (because of internal bleeding )and blood has been drained from th e burr hole from then onwards he is given lacosamide 200mg once in the morning and once in the evening however he is not that active after levipil is stopped and his hands and legs are shaking so I would like to know if we can start levipil 500 again post surgery and please let me know if levipil 500mg causes side effects like bleeding again in the brain like that , thanks in advance :)
