Please suggest the best remedy.  <response>: Thanks for posting this question in ChatDoctorI am a neurologist and epilepsy specialist responding to first of all let me tell you that treatment of epilepsy largely depends upon the exact type of epilepsy it may be a focal epilepsy due to brain tumor, scar related to head injury or other cause, or it can be genetically mediated generalized epilepsy. For a proper diagnosis of epilepsy, a neurologist will need EEG test and MRI scan of brain; both of these data are not available to me in your case. Let us see your case. I understand that you had a head injury. This might have resulted in a focal scar in the brain which can cause epilepsy. I am not sure the exact severity of head injury and if there is a scar or not. One interesting thing which you have to note that some types of epilepsy namely primary generalized epilepsy can become worse after treatment with Oxcarbazepine. However, this possibility is low in your case but cannot be excluded without a long term EEG and MRI scan of brain. Once, a long term EEG and MRI can identify he exact type of epilepsy. We will have the following options1. If focal: Enc orate throne will not be a good option. You can continue higher doses of Oxcarbazepine up to 30 mgkg i donor know your body weight. If this fails, you may try adding Cloacae. If MRI shows scar the other options if these medicines fail you have to undergo a detailed presurgical evaluation in an epilepsy center.2. If your diagnosis turns out to be primary generalized epilepsy, you have to with Chat Doctor. You will only benefit with Enc orate chronic advise you to meet one epilepsy expert in your place who will deal the way I have described Hope this will help you
