What Is The Cause For Headache When On Oxetoln And Trioptal For Seizures?

Hi Doctor,

Hi and thank you so much for this query,

Drugs impose changes to the body that may take a while for all to return to nrmal. Because he just started this new medication, I will suggest that you monitor over a few days to a week before concluding on whether this is transient or something that needs more attention. I will recommend you give him some baby tylenol to relief his headache while we obtain more information to act on.

I hope it helps and wish you both well.
Thanks and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications.
