Neurologist,  's  Response
before starting of antiepileptics we want to know the semiology of epilepsy, its frequency and its eeg finding. as far your case is consired as she is a female and in her teen age sod. valproate ( Macorate) should be replaced with other inert antiepileptic like levetiracetam.
