I seemed to work well with taking Vimpant, but with insurance is was $600 a month. Any idea of how to get it cheaper. I was exercising before [[treatment:Keppra:5508b44d6bcd6155dd0008e5]] and am weepy, felling sorry for my self.

What Ever You Do, Never Feel Sorry For Yourself. Stay Strong & Please Stay Strong & Keep Your Head Up. πŸ’œβ€οΈ It's Not Your Fault & Anyone Who Has Epileptic Seizures Should Not Have To Pay Out Of Pocket. Our Meds Are Very Expensive. I'm Fully Covered Through My Health Insurance.

every person is different when it comes to taking medication. There are some that I can take and others that I can't both generic and brand reason being, I have a sensitive stomach. I don't mind being unique as it allows me to ask questions. I have been my own advocate for many years.

I am fortunate enough to live in England, UK, where NHS prescribed meds for epileptic people are free.
Update; I have stopped Keppra, and now on combination of Briviact 75mg bd and clobazam 10mg bd. Initial signs after about 3 weeks are looking much better than when on Keppra πŸ˜ŠπŸ€žπŸ‘

I have found that if you get a letter from your doctor saying that you have to have brand name they have to give you brand name
