Answer:

The most commonly used pharmacological agents to reduce the frequency and severity of seizures are: Carbital, Diamox, Phenytoin, Phenobarbital, Gabaneurin, Gardenal, Hidantal, Lamotrigine, Lyrica, Oxcarbazepine, Rivotril.

Explanation:

A seizure can have many causes, so treatment varies according to the diagnosis made by the doctor. Therefore, only a trained specialist can tell you which medicine is right for you, as well as the correct dosage and duration of treatment. The most commonly used pharmacological agents to reduce the frequency and severity of seizures are: Carbital, Diamox, Phenytoin, Phenobarbital, Gabaneurin, Gardenal, Hidantal, Lamotrigine, Lyrica, Oxcarbazepine, Rivotril.

Ideally, a person with seizures should always strictly follow their doctor's guidelines and NEVER self-medicate. Do not stop using your medicine without consulting a doctor first, and if you take it more than once or in much larger quantities than prescribed, follow the directions on the package leaflet.
