  5. I am currently taking Epiliv 500 (twice daily) and Lametec 100 (once at night) for epilepsy, but I am still experiencing breakthrough seizures, giddiness, and vertigo.

Epilepsy with breakthrough seizures despite medicines needs review by a neurologist, especially if you also have giddiness or vertigo. Continue Epiliv 500 and Lametec 100 exactly as prescribed and do not stop or reduce them on your own. Some Ayurvedic herbs or supplements may interact with seizure medicines or even trigger seizures, so avoid self-medication. Supportive therapies such as good sleep, stress reduction, yoga, meditation, hydration, and avoiding alcohol or missed doses may help overall well-being. Before starting any Ayurvedic treatment, consult both your neurologist and a qualified Ayurvedic doctor for safety.
