People on medication can still have seizures, but that does not mean that their seizures are being caused by the medication. There are many causes for seizures. If you follow the instructions with your medication and those of your doctor, your medication should not cause any major problems. Taking the correct dosage and at the right times is important. Some seizure medication does have side-effects, but you will get that information from your doctor.

∙ 14y agoEpilepsy is defined as being the tendency to have seizures. The idea of the medication is to reduce or stop the seizures happening. While on medication you may still have seizures, but the medication does not cause them. It is like asking if having a bandage on a cut will cause you to bleed. You can bleed when you are wearing a bandage, but it is not the bandage that causes the bleeding. So the answer to your question is no.
