Then they prescribed levetiracetam 500 twice daily. Then my mother after taking medicine for 1 month missed her 5doses and again it happened. But after that she is taking her medicines and it did not happened anymore. Its one year now. Please suggest me if it is curable. Or it can be cured by taking the medicines. Please.

You have to continue medicine without any break for next 3 years and then only it will be tapered off by your doctor.
