Keppra And Frisium During Pregnancy

A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question đź’­
Melbourne, AU

Hi Everyone,

I've had JME epilepsy for 20 years. I was always on Epilim which kept me pretty well seizure free. A while back, my fiancé and I decided that we would change meds as recommended by my neurologist so that we can have a baby.

It wasn't as easy as first expected and I had a couple of seizures, trying to transfer over to Keppra. My neuro added Frisium which seems to have worked and I'm now over a year seizure free.

I am also now 19 weeks pregnant. Reaching the half way mark, I am… read more

Epilepsy can also be hereditary. Pregnant women are just guinea pigs right now. Too scary for me to get pregnant. They don't know enough yet. I can't have a child who has more problems than me. If… read more

Sydney, AU

I have absence seizures and I am on 250mg Lamotrogine twice daily and have now added Frisium/Clobazam. Lamotrogine in pregnancy seems safe but Frisium/Clobazam not so much. Interested to hear from anyone who has been pregnant on Frisium/Clobazam and their experience.

A MyEpilepsyTeam Member

Yes. I have epilepsy and I am pregnant with my third. My 2 oldest are very healthy.

I am not really sure that medication has changed me. I started the medication at 17 when your brain goes through one of its growth spurts and I have not idea what would have happened if I was not on… read more

Believe it or not that's where I had my 1st grandmal. Playing in the park. My sister hit me in head w/ feet while swinging. Dropped to ground . Went into immediate seizure. Someone picked me up and rush me to St Mary's hospital across the street. That's where I was first diagnosed. 1965. 7 yrs old. Can't describe the feeling that came over me. I still haven't completely crossed it. I'll talk to psychiatrist. What do you all think? Sheryl

Use Of Frisium With Lamictal And/or Keppra

A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question đź’­
Cork, IE

Howdy Folks, 
Like a lot of people, stress and anxiety have been the main triggers for my epilepsy over the years. Just wondering if anyone has used Frisium along with Lamicta and Keppra or any other meds for that matter. I would really appreciate it if they could give me an insight into how they reacted to it. In some people it will have a calming effect which had helped some people with epilepsy. 
Wishing you health and happiness!!

As For The Medical Treatment And Such Etc, We're Making Progress I Think, But What About Now Meds And Treatment And Your Opinion On It?

A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question đź’­
Englewood, CO

I don't really see nothing against it , I think we've come a good step since back in the day and their technology and techniques, also medicine and what is new nowadays, I usually don't? The medical system and the treatment and such etc, now and then, but I think it's moving forward in a slow but getting there way, more than a while ago and I am ok with that, my opinion, what are your thoughts?

It all depends on the medication you take. I do not know how new Keppra is but it is no good for me. I went back to the Tegretol CR which I had starting in about 1966 - it may be old but it is… read more
