Good sleep hygiene.: Retire & rise same time each day. Keep bedroom dark & cool & use only for sex & sleep. Turn off tv. No naps. Exercise regularly but not in late evening. No caffeine for 6 hrs & no alcohol or tobacco w/i 2 hrs of sleep. Keep dinner moderate sized & finish at least 2 to 3 hrs before sleep. Can try warm milk, Chamomile tea or melatonin along w light reading, warm bath or lavender scent.

Some ideas: An understandable concern; it's hard to sleep when sick, and that may lead to more seizures. You might try melatonin 3mg or a small dose of benadryl (diphenhydramine) (unlikely to provoke seizures).
