I'm sorry to hear that Frank is having this problem! I agree that it's concerning for him to still be having cluster seizures, even on a combination of different meds. I would recommend consulting with your veterinarian about the next recommended steps from here (possibly a dosage adjustment, or a different/additional medication such as zonisamide or gabapentin), or requesting referral to a specialist for further evaluation to see what else can be done.
