Hi i have grand mal seizures and am 16 im on keppra 750mg two times a day i had a seizure when i was 12 and was diagnosed with epilepsy i was on depakote 250mgs 3 times a day for 2 years seizure free.So they took me off depakote(roughly 14) since my EEG was normal i was off for 2 years and just recently about 8 months ago i had another grand mal seizure so they gave me another EEG which was also normal but they still put me on keppra been on for about 7 months and since then i have had 3 more seizures so right now im on the process of getting off keppra i also dont like the side effects.p.s. nothing causes my seizures except the keppra is anyone else like that
 
RRUIZ,
I have been on Tegretol only since 1985 so I can only say Welcome and glad to have you join us. You'll be getting alot more info and advice in the next few postings. I hope you find the friendship and consultation here you are looking for in your world of Epilepsy.
 
Welcome. I didn't do well with Keppra either. My seizures intensified and I couldn't tolerate the side effects. Hope you enjoy it here there's so much help, support and information.
