Oxetol 300 Mg Side Effects (Page 4) (Top voted first)

Hi there,

My dad is 58yrs old, he's an epilepsy patient for last 30+ years..Right from inital stage till date he has been using sodium valproate 400mg twice a day. Recently a few weeks back he's affected with epilepsy (fits) after nearly two years gap.

As a common practice we have consulted the doctor and has make him to undergo all the test (ECG/EPG) etc tests.

As a result the doctor whom we consulted has advised to stop using sodium valproate 400mg and replace it with Oxetol 300mg and assured this should take care of the issue.

Now all im worried here is, with my dad being 58yrs old, will changing the medicine now have any kind of impact? Will he be safe?

Please advise, im pretty worried about his health...

Thanks

Sir, my son is 20 yrs old and taking oxetol 300 tab one in morning and one at night since 2015. Now the problem of urine not passing smoothly. He has to force to pass the urine. After urination there is a burning sensation. This problem started before 25 days the frequency is 3-4 times a day so please tell me that it is due to the side effect of oxetol 300. Also he has an OCD problem and he is taking the following medicines:

Re: Verwon (# 11)

Hi verwon. I'm 26 years old. I had a seizure in jan 2015 but i ignored it and it happened again in march 2016 one time only... In jan 2017 i got married and this type of attack happened again in march 2017. Then me and my husband went to a doctor and she suggested I have a brain MRI scan. In result, she said i have a bunch of vessels in the left side of my brain and a little up to my ear... She prescribed me oxetol 300 and librozym twice a day. Is this medicine safe to take during pregnancy? Whenever i stop these medications i get seizures again and also weakness in the right side area of my body... After these attacks occurred i also suddenly lost a noticeable percent of my eyesight in my right eye... I'm very disturbed by this. Please guide me.

I am an epilepsy patient (1st stage) since 5 years now I am (28+yrs) in this last 4 yrs i've been using oxetol 300 mg and stemetil 5mg twice a day. After I have started the treatment I have I got only once seizures and after that luckily it did not happen to me. And at the moment I could not consult my doctor for it. And its not available in Maldives (my country) so everytime I have to bring medicine from abroad which now adays financially my status is not good so I could not get the medicine. So since last year August i have stopped my medicine. So I would like to know whether is there any side effect or any other problem for me by stopping the medicine. And also I wanted to know will there be any problem for my baby because when I was pregnent also I was using the medicine because I did not know I was pregnant after 7 months only I knew it. But also I was using those medicine untill he was born and after that too.

Thanks much for your reply Verwon.

As i understand from your reply, you recon my dad should try using Oxetol 300.

So far for last 1 week be had switched using Oxetol 300, there has been no major side effects we noticed. How ever as i understand he is prompting him self to sleep almost all time... plus he is bit confused, sitting ideal and not talking to any one...

I'm worried is this a wrong sign?

Thanks heaps for your help on this mate.
