I would be very, very careful about trying herbs for something like this, especially if you're already on medication to prevent seizures. Always talk to your doctor beforehand.

That said, here's some information from the Healthline website.

With an increasing market and public interest, herbal treatments have soared in popularity. There seems to be an herb for every ailment.

Some of the most commonly used herbs for epilepsy are:

burning bush
groundsel
hydrocotyle
lily of the valley
mistletoe
mugwort
peony
scullcap
tree of heaven
valerian
According to a 2003 studyTrusted Source, a handful of herbal remedies used in traditional Chinese, Japanese Kampo, and Indian Ayurveda medicine have shown anticonvulsant effects. Still, there are no randomized, blind, controlled studies to support their benefits.

The safety, side effects, and interactions are not well studied.

Some of the above listed natural herbs can actually cause illness — even death. Currently, there’s not enough scientific proof that most herbal remedies successfully treat epilepsy. Most evidence is anecdotal.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) also doesn’t regulate herbal supplements. Herbs sometimes cause unpleasant side effects such as headaches, rashes, and digestive problems.

Although some herbs might help epilepsy, others may worsen your symptoms.

Herbs to avoid
Gingko biloba and St. John’s wort may interact with antiseizure medications.
Kava, passionflower, and valerian may increase sedation.
Garlic may interfere with your medication levels.
Chamomile may prolong the effects of your medication.
Schizandra may cause additional seizures.
Herbal supplements containing ephedra or caffeine may worsen seizures. These include guarana and kola.
Mint tea

I know this a very late reply to this topic, but in my naturopathic practice, each client is assessed based on the entirety and complexity of their medical history. With that said, it is only then that the practitioner can make recommendations based off that medical history, allergies to medication and sensitivities. I would advise you to seek consultation with a naturopathic practitioner so you able to receivethe treatment you need.

You will need to be seen by neurology and get medication for the seizures.

I strongly advise against mixing herbs with medication.

You can work with whatever spirit you like if you take precautions and protective measures.

Lilly of the valley, the burning bush and mistletoe are poisonous plants. I would not mess about with the tree of heaven, either. You can go overboard with the lethal dose easily with these, even if you are in perfect health.
