Has anyone else here experienced itching as a side effect of Keppra? I started scratching my legs/arms all the time once I started taking Keppra.

Seek medical attention right away if any of these SEVERE side effects occur when using Keppra:
Severe allergic reactions (rash; hives; itching; difficulty breathing; tightness in the chest; swelling of the mouth, face, lips, or tongue);
Yes, it certainly is one side effect. I've been on Keppra about 18 months and I dislike it more every day. Plus I have chronically dry skin and I live in Minnesota where the (high for the day) air temperature is forecast to be about 5 above by Thursday (January 17). And I get to catch the bus to appointments. Yes, I am looking forward to the end of this week----!Has anyone else here experienced itching as a side effect of Keppra?
