It's overall a very bad sign, it's either related to the primary condition causing seizures or to the medication that can potentially cause liver damage. you need to take him to the vet urgently, they will need to take bloods and run a blood test, after the result they will need to reassess the course of treatment, maybe they will change the drug or add an additional one for Troy.
