Hi.. May I advice you to consult pediatric neurologist? Usually febrile convulsions will not require such long duration treatment. Second we can check the blood levels of drug and modify it if necessary.. But most important is to have correct diagnosis.. U can also discuss the behavioral problem with the neurologist...I hope it helps.. Thanks
