Hello
Levipil and encorate chrono both are anti-epileptic and given in treatment of seizure disorder.
Encorate is time tested anti-epileptic but has various side effects.
On the othe hand, levipil is a newer drug but efficacy is not well tested and side effects are not well studied.
If your daughter is tolerating levipil and is not having seizures on this drug, i would suggest you to continue with levipil.
Hope this helps
