Hi its Lee Evans, I also drool, as well and I think a lot of people with epilepsey suffer from drooling, and I don’t think medication helps much with this, either. If I was to have a guess I would say it was due to the medication I was taking but I’m not sure as I’m not a doctor, but I have never experienced much Drooling, until I started taking my medication so I think that’s what it probably is but wouldn’t know as I am not a doctor I hope I have been of some help.
Kind regards,
Lee Evans.-🤓

I drooled when I had my grand mals and my pati mals and this all happened when I was out of it just staring into space but I knew about it as I felt it running down my face and throat as it built up in my mouth as I couldn't swallow. Now that there small and weak and I don't know about them because their so small and weak and mostly noctornal I don't drool anymore. My sezuires shifted from noctornal sezuires after I had the neropace implemented in my brain for control of a sezuire disorder I have generalized simple partial complex epilepsy with a loss of consciousness since birth.

I read the answers above and I drooled before I even got on clozabam. I always thought that the nights I do it I'm having more seizure activity in my brain that night since on my eegs I always have of activity not as much as before but it's still there. As they explained it to me there not actual seizures it's just seizure activity where the brain waves go crazy.
