My daughter is now 2 yrs old and was diagnosed with Aicardi Syndrome when she turned 3 months old. SHe has always had daily seizures. I'm wondering what medicines others had tried to control Seizures. She has been on quite a fe win the past(ex.keppra, phenobarbitol, topamax, trileptal, dilantin, and others.) However the 2 she is on currently(Topamax and Trileptal) have seemed to worked the best for her overall. Lately her seizures have been getting worse again and I have thought of asking the Neurologist to change her meds but I am not sure which ones to suggest. If anyone could tell me what meds have worked well for their children that would be great. Thanks
