Does anybody have any suggestions I can use to help my son? He recently went up on his Keppra, he is at about 1200 mg's a day now. His seizures are completely controlled, even the little things that were going on have stopped, certainly he has had no more clonic tonic's, which is awesome. The issue is sleep, or lack there of. He takes 2 mg's of melatonin at night and that helps him to fall asleep and he is generally tired by bed time, as he should be, since he is waking at an ungodly hour. This morning I watched him on the video monitor reading at 4:30, he is 8 and this is just not healthy. Does anybody know if there is an extended release Melatonin, or if increasing the nightime does would help him to get more sleep in the AM? Any suggestions are appreciated. This is a physically very active boy.
