Hellow Sister, I am Ganesan, I too very worstly affected by chronic epilepsy. Better to stop such very old and severe side effect casued medicines. I consult with the Neuro Dr.Sankaranarayanan who is at Tambaram Doctor's plaza. Even they confirmed as Co-genital problem but still the medicines with heavy dosages I can manage because of my Neuro's suggessitions. He is very friendly with the patients.
Further more if u need any clarifications pls cnct me.

My doctor advised me to gradually lower the dosage so that the sudden impact of leaving the medicine doesn't happen. He asked me to reduce from 300ER to 250 for a month the 200 for a month, then 150 a month, then 100 a month, then 50 a month and finally 0.

Seizures of many types - tonic-clonic seizures are mostly suffered at later years. The general seizures are better as they dont cause severe damage to brain, and other neuro sensitive regions.
I suffered tonic clonic seizure at 33, even fractured my hand of violent movements during that. I was put on eption 300mg / day, life seems normal.
But after 1 year onwards, I got insomnia and it is still there after 6 years. I suffered another severe episode of seizure I voimited blood also, after stopping eption, on a neurologist advise. But again put on same dose.
So I continue till now and suffer bone loss, liver problem (SGPT levels rise), constipation and oflate suffering memory loss and confusion. I had to leave thriving career as stress is another factor that causes seizure if you have suffered once. so try to be calm.
This medicine is once started is forever, until you live, though not happily....life is harsh on me.

Dear Kumar, I too have been an Epileptic since Yr.12 after an operation on my left thigh bone.I have no other problem.I take Eptoin100m.g. 3 times a day.Long term use definitely brings swollen soles,loss of feeling,less thinking power,high growth of hair,deterioration of muscle & bones leading to malformed fingers .....the story goeson.But do not stop your intake without consulting your Doc. Love, Geofrrey

I am 55 years old engineer working in Jakarta. I had an accident in dec 2010 and was in coma for 4 days. After the brain surgery, the doctors prescribed eptoin 100 mg x 3 times a day. 6 months later on I started to have skin infection in form of boils which will not get cured by anti biotics. The doctors changed my medicine to levetiracetam 500 mg x 2 times a day. The levetiracetam makes me drowsy in after noon and causes nausea, weakness and mood swings causing depression. I picked up 7 kg after starting the levetiracetam. After 5 months I changed back to eptoin 100 mg x 3 times a day. After 4 months I again had the boils on skin and changed to levetiracetam. Now I will be back to India in august and ask the doctor to suggest another medicins as both the earlier ones have bad side effects.
