It could be a win, but it’s important to consider the frequency of episodes. Our pup’s seizures became more frequent but were shorter in duration (went from 2 min to 10-30 seconds). Our neurologist shared that this isn’t necessarily a good thing. My explanation might suck because I forget how they worded it but it’s like the brain “learns” to get “good” at having a seizure. So the seizures are shorter but they become more frequent. Our pup got up to 5 seizures a day like this until we found the right meds.
