 Hello,Seizure medications in general do peciptate a B12 deficiency. B12 is safe and nontoxic but then your physician would monitor the levels and hematological profiles.
Also convulsions and B12 deficiency can be linked via tape worm infestations which I guess have been ruled out in your case.Do get a stool examination in case this has not been cleared, just to be sure after discussing with your physician.
Best wishes.
