That comment is because they don't know the answer.

In fact one seizure drug, Depakote, has been shown to DEPLETE
carnitine. There have been deaths from this.

Like I said before, the sites on supplements can all vary.
Notice also it is for "seizures" the warning was made.
Not for people take anti-seizure meds for PAIN control.

No one really knows what causes some seizures in humans. Some triggers are never discovered. These doctors have liability attached to giving advice on the internet. There are always disclaimers when doctors are involved.
