Hi Ms Pooja, Thank you for posting your query. I have noted your symptoms, and they are suggestive of a condition called as epilepsy. In epilepsy, a person can faint repeatedly. However, once you take antiepileptic Chat Doctor. Extol (oxcarbazepine) is a good AED, and it is required for long duration. In several people, we are able to stop AED's in 3-5 years. However, in some people, lifelong medicines may be required. Oxetol is a safe medicine and there are no serious side effects with that. I hope it helps. Best wishes,
