                        I have been on seizure medication for about 20 years now, I take Dilantin 500 mg/day and one time they switched my medication to tegretol which caused me to have a serious side effects which resulted in severe dizziness which was really horrible.  I have found out switching from one seizure medicine to another is a big problem, at least for me.  I hope this helps some.
