A doctor or other health care provider will evaluate you after your seizure to determine if the seizure was caused by something specific, such as head trauma, alcohol or drugs, or an infection of some kind. You may not need anti-seizure medication if the cause of the seizure can be identified and resolved or avoided in the future.
