Saw my neuro on Friday due to ongoing partial seizures and complex partials not being controlled by Dilantin. Am currrently on 500 mg of Dilantin per day (200 in a.m. and 300 in p.m.). The dilantin is now in therapeutic levels and seizure activity is still not controlled so the doc has added Levetiracetam (500 mg) which the pharmacist said is Keppra. It is being introduced slowly ( one pill at night for a week, then one pill in a.m. and p.m. for a week and then 2 pills a.m. and p.m.) I am also scheduled for another EEG. What have people's experiences been with Keppra - is this going to get things under control?? and what side effects can I expect?? This is all new to me as I was just diagnosed in June.
