Hello dear Greetings
Sorry about your daughter! Regarding your child diagnosed seizure episode following a prescription of keppra by her physician I am suggesting yes this is definitely an appropriate medication that will manage her Cerebral palsy and control seizure attack
Hence you can see a paediatric psychologist specialist for further Councelling and expert advice regarding her condition
I hope this helps Regards
