Thanks for your advice.But i heard that medications of epilepsy is expensive.That's why i just want to ask is there any way that,no need for taking medicines,as he doesn't want to take medicines.Thank you so much friend.

Medications prevent seizures...your mum's treatment doesn't.  Unless your younger brother's epilepsy magically goes away, he'll continue to have seizures.  If he takes medication, he's much more likey to stop having seizures because the medication will prevent them from happening.

Take care.
