Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
All seizures are not similar. There are many other effective alternative antiepileptic drugs like valproate, lacosamide, carbamazepine. Combination may be required in some cases. You should visit to a Neurologist for complete evaluation. EEG and MRI should be done.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
