B vitamins
As some of you already know I have only used B vitamins to control my seizures (including Status Epilepticus). I have been prescribed vitamin B6 for over 41 years - which I use on a daily bases. In my lifetime I have had two unsuccessful trials of AEDs.
Here is some information regarding Vitamin B6 Dependent Epilepsy:

vitamin B6 Dependent Epilepsy is extremely rare. I was two weeks old when I had my first seizure and five months old when my then Paediatrician first adminstered vitamin B6.
