Answer:

valproic acid, lamotrigine and topiramate.

Explanation:

She's only 17, a teenager. Her seizures were in the middle of the night (3 a.m) or almost around awakening time (6 a.m), in the last sleep phases. Her physical condition is ok. So, her generalized seizure disorder could fit actually in a Juvenile Myoclonic Epilepsy, an epileptic syndrome. Any doctor could prescribe firstly Valproic Acid, followed by Lamotrigine and Topiramate as the best Anticonvulsant meds, as his alternate options.
