Levetiracetam (Keppra) to help in some cases of RLS.
I’ve posted because I’ve read this very good article about
Keppra
being used to help restless leg syndrome, & periodic limb movement in sleep.

I was one of the first to try
Keppra
and it worked, at least to a point. Years later still with the same neurologist that put me on
Keppra
, I developed a (believed to be) autoimmune disease called Stiff Person Syndrome. This disease causes severe muscle spasms and rigidity.

Epilim to Keppra
My wife has terrible shaking with Epilim and through our GP we are trying to ditch the Ep and move on to
Keppra
. Does one come off the ep entirely? We are on 150mg Lamotrigine, 400mg Epilim and 1000mg
Keppra
. Would the 400mg Epilim still cause shaking/tremors?

Myoclonic Seizures
Meanwhile, he put her on a drug called
Keppra
. My daughter feels worse taking this medication. It makes her tired, moody and she shakes even more. Has anyone had any success on any medication? How about medical marijuana? Thank you for any info you can share.

My situation
I’m currently on zonisamide, clobazam &
Keppra
which I have fully been on for 2 1/2 months. Hadn’t appreciated the possible side effects of
Keppra
which I experienced & still have moments, having switched from lamotrigine (happy pill feeling).

Epilepsy, not having empathy, outbursts, and insults that are impulsive
Is it
keppra
too? Is it mirtazapine? People say I'm using my condition as an excuse. Am I? I don't know what to think about myself anymore, accept that maybe I am a nasty horrible person. I don't know anymore.

Liver tests with AEDs?
Hi, I’ve been living with epilepsy for around 18 years and have been taking
Keppra
and Clobazam for around 16 (1000mg and 10mg respectively, everyday). A colleague of mine who also has epilepsy said I should be having regular liver tests...is this correct?
