A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question 💭
Otisville, MI

I've been dealing with a lot of rage and anger and just general not feeling like myself. It has come to my attention that there is something called keppra rage that comes from taking keppra which is what I take for my seizures. Has anyone or is anyone also dealing with this and have you found anything to help deal with or get rid of the rage?

Xcopri And Side Effects

A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question 💭

I finally got my license back a year ago after achieving seizure control (yay) with Lamictal and Topamax, but my doctor thinks I'm having some undetected sleep activity and the Topamax causes severe anxiety for me, so she wants to switch to Xcopri. I started for a few days, but my vision was really weird, almost hallucinating, and I need to drive my kids around. I decided to stop until my next visit (I have sample packs). Also dreading the sleepiness, although I've found it got better after… read more

I'm up to 50 mg and my doctor wants to get me to 100 mg. Really tired is the only side effect I've had, but it's better if I fight through it rather than sleep. Seems like the tiredness gets a lot… read more

Atl, GA

Can you be free of epilepsy and after years return back?

A MyEpilepsyTeam Member

Keppra

A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question 💭

I’ve been on Keppra for 18 months, it’s worked very well, I had a surgery two weeks ago and I feel like I’m starting to have jerks in the last few days, anyone else ever had it stop working? Specifically after a major surgery?

Keppra + B6

A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question 💭
Brisbane, AU

Hey everyone,
To anyone here who currently takes Keppra with B6 what has it been like when it comes to the side effects? Has the B6 helped?
And if it has gone well, what was it like (if you have done it) when your dosage increased while taking the B6.
Thanks.

@A MyEpilepsyTeam Member I wonder why they advised it like that? Normally they say take it in the morning combined with fluids, so it filters through.

So Over All...if You Take Keppra, Would You Say That Eventually My Dose Will Be Increased?

A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question 💭

I have Myoclonic seizures (jerks), but since being put on Keppra, God has blessed me with no jerks, seizures, nothing!!! I take 500 mags., 2xs a day...it’s worked amazingly for a month...how long before they increase doses usually?
