Hi everyone, I've seen a lot about B6 helping with Keppra side effects in toddlers. I asked my doc about it and she wasn't aware. We see her again on Monday, and I'll bring it up again.

I have a 32 month old with myoclonic epilepsy and on 3.5 ml Keppra (generic) 2x a day. We just started 3.5 weeks ago and I we are trying to get to the right dose but this week, I've noticed a significant amount of moodiness/crying/whining, and it's hard to tell if it's his age or the meds.

If I do decide to try it, how do I buy it and administer it?
How much do I give a 32 lb boy?

Thanks everyone. I think this topic is probably all over this site but I thought I'd add a new one :)
 
B6 is one of the vitimans you can buy straight from the store, most stores have childrens ranges which are sufficient regards a childs age most of them are just one a day, childrens ranges usually come in liquid or flavoured chewy tablets, just follow packinging guidelines :), obviously consult with his doctor first
