Vimpat

A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question 💭
Olathe, KS

I just started taking Vimpat along with the Lamictal. Keppra gave me horrible side effects and the doctor said this one is better. Has anyone taken this combo before? Did it work? Any bad side effects?

I am on that exact combo. It works for me, but vimpat is hard to take. Bad balance issues and dizziness. Really bad! Has decreased over the last two years . Initially doc increased vimpat very slowly..make sure your doc does that.
