Seizures: Strongly consider reviewing your medications with your local MD or neurologist. If there are drug levels that need to be drawn have them drawn. Also have a full examination in addition to the medication review.

Seizure medications: New onset seizures in an adult with no family history of seizures may have an underlying treatable cause. If you have epilepsy with no identified underlying cause, then avoid triggers (EG, fatigue/lack of sleep, alcohol, flashing lights), and take meds to control. Monitoring blood levels may be needed. See your doctor for the best meds for you. List of effective meds here: healthtap.com/raterx
