I can understand your concern. As he is under treatment, I would suggest you to continue medications as advised. You can travel, no issue. Don't leave him alone during travelling. Hopefully, there will not be any seizure as he is under treatment. If repeats, usually it goes automatically. Only prevent him from head injury and try to rush nearby hospital.
