I feel quite disgusted really I was given my medication 15mths ago and have not seen a doctor since then but I have managed to get an appointment later this week so hopefully can discuss my side effects and perhaps deal with them

Yes, it is. Elepsia XR also called Levetiracetam, Keppra. Will cause dry throat and problems with swallowing. Also gives you anger, anxiety and depression just to name a few. If you are uncomfortable with the side effects, you may need to talk to your doctor about a change in meds.
