You can stop the medication based on your present EEG and if it does not show any epileptiform focus.

Hello,
tab phenytoin is a safe drug and in use for many years, if it is controlling your seizures and you have not had any side effects there is no need to change the medication. Extended phenytoin sodium tab can be taken once a day also. The symptoms you had are not related to use of phenytoin.

If he had a ear bleed do get a ct scan of temporal bones done to rule out any fracture. It's better to get assured than later repent. Keep ear dry no water should go into ears. Avoid using ear drops. Get also an ent consultation done to ascertain if there is any injury to the ear drum. Will need to take a course of antibiotics after the consultation to avoid infection.

Hi thanks for your query. I am dr akshay from fortis hospital, new delhi.
Anti epileptic drugs are known to interfere with bone metabolism and can lead to osteomalacia etc due to which you can have lethargy, tiredness and bone pains. Please get your dexa scan and serum calcium and vitamin d levels and send it across to me so that I can see and advise accordingly. Do not hesitate to contact me if you need any further assistance.
Thanks & regards

Best treatment can be outlined by your consultant neurologist. It is not the question of best treatment. It is important to select the most effective medicine, in single or in combination, that is required for your son and that will be done by a neurologist. So please follow his advice. If eptoin has kept your son's seizure under control over last one year, I feel, he is under able hand.
