Does anyone know of any problems with moving from generic zonisamide to Zonigran? I've been having breakthrough seizures and I think they're due to the variation of dosages by varying manufactures...any ideas? Thanks guys....
 
usually it's

going from brand name to generic that causes problems because the fillers that are in the generics are different than what is in the brand name meds......
 
Generics and seizures every 90 days...

Guys, I'm taking zonasamide and I'm having breakthrough seizures every 90 days almost to the day. Has this happened to anyone else??? Thanks
 
I'm not taking zonasamide, but Ive noticed I still have sps every month on the eptiol which is generic tegretol. I actually have many seizures I havent been counting them... I personally dont think some of us have a choice because of the cost of meds we have to try and just deal with the generic meds. & keep your neuro Or doctor up to date with whats going on.
