[epilepsy] Does anyone else take a prn

Does anyone else take a prn when they feel a seizure coming on? I am lucky, I can feel them some times up to 4-5 hours before a GM seizure.
Wasn't always able to but for the last few years.I take lamictal and it seems to work great for years now but lately about the last 4 months seems that I felt not so great more and closer together. Anyway I went to a different Dr. One I met at work.And He added clonazepam 0.5 mg every 12 hours I couldn't handle it routine. I was also give a prn ativan and one day I was at work and started feeling that afraid,fearful, nervous feeling I get prior to a seizure. I took a clonazepam and Ativan and within 90 minutes I felt better. Now I take them as a prn and my Dr. knows Just because it has helped me doesn't mean it is safe for everyone check with your Dr.
