Has Anyone Been On Vimpat? If So How Long And Was It Succesful?
I’ve been on Carbotral since i was 8, and trokendi since i was 14-15. I was hospitalized in the past 2 weeks to study my absent seizures off all medications, because i normally have auras only when medicated, until the padt year, ive recently began having absents again also. The doctors tested one medication that was unsuccessful while i was hospitalized, before testing Vimpat over a 24 hour period, and then i was released. I’ve been out for nearly 2 weeks now, and i haven’t had any seizures… read more
It seems to help me more at a higher dosage from 50 mg. twice per day. Doctor recommended taking 100mg. AM and PM.
I’ve been on Vimpat 200 2x day for 6 years with various other drugs. It is the only thing that is rock solid for me, made me sleepy at first but not after a couple weeks, and when I’ve tried to stop ($450 on the Medicare pt 2) it’s affected me badly. I just got on a sliding scale/ low income status, which most Medicare people can. Of course, now it’s generic, so no worries! I really count on my Vimpat more than anything else!
I've been on Vimpat 100 MG twice a day still having blackouts.
