I emailed My Neurologist today about the Med. She said it has been approved and if I still want to try it She'll change My Vimpat to it.
I’ve taken Xcorpi bc my dr told me it’s too new on the market to sell the generic. If that’s the same med it worked great for my seizures. The side effects can harm u if u use more then 12.5mg 1x/day. Once I went up to 50mg I noticed a huge difference in my thinking. It can make it hard to think straight & feel unconfused.
Unfortunately, it's another drug... controlled substance
I am thinking of trying it and want to speak to my neurologist on my next review. I am weaning off pregabalin at the moment.
