Good Afternoon Sir,My self is of 37 yrs of man, I get first epileptic attack in the year 2007. After that my EEG was done and my reports were normal. Doctor started 300 mg of eptoin along with Folic Acid of 5 mg. Since then, while on medicines i have,t got any attack. As such concerned doctor stopped my medicines. After Stopping of medicines, since 3 months i was normal. But one day in office I again attack. After that doctor again started my medicines and then since two years i got no attack. Again i came in contact with other neurologist, who told me that you have to take risk. As such you should reduce your dose month by month and then stop it. As per his advice in first month I continued with 300 mg of eptoin with 5 mg of folic acid, in second month i started 200 mg of eptoin along with 5 mg of folic acid and in the third month i started taking 100 mg of eptoin with 5 mg of folic acid and then i stopped with these medicines. As such after stopping with these medicines for one month i was alright. Then one night before diwali i got three attacks in the same night. Now neurologist has again started eption of 350 mg with folic acid of 5 mg. Now Sir, should i have to continue with these medicines for whole life. Is these medicines put any side effects on our married life

These Phenytoin drugs are not a curative. They only control to an extent.Try to trace the cause of your epilepsy (accident/smoking/drinking liquor) and address that. In case non of cited causes apply or nothing else is traceable as a cause do not worry the seizures will stop just as they came.

It all started after my first deliery of my son at 23 when i used to stop speaking and stare at vacancy for a second.I used to take anxit from local doc. Then during my 2nd pregnancy 5th month i had a full blown seizure n fell down. The baby was fine n delivery was normal. After that they tried tegretol which didn't suit me . I was taking eptoin n epilex two tabs each for 16 yrs and every year will have one or two attacks so had to continue the tablets. But since sep'09 inspite of taking eptoin n epilex i had 2 seizures in a month so I decided to change the doc n doc decided to change the complete medicine to topomac100mg n frisium10 mg 2 but it was like every month 2 episodes ,so now the doc has introduced lacosam50mg. Is all this ok ? Is my brain in safe hands?
