Epilex

My doctor repeatedly prescribed me Epilex Chrono 300 for the past eleven years and I had recently experienced a paralysis stroke; I am now worried about the side effects. Please help me to clear my doubts. ## Epilex Crono contains Sodium Valproate/Valproic Acid, it is used to help prevent seizures. Have you discussed your concerns with your doctor? If you have experienced seizures, or suffered brain damage that could make you prone to them, your risk is far greater if you don't take a medication to help prevent or control them, than it is from the medication itself.

I was on Epilive 500mg for the last 3 years, now my doc. has changed my medication to Epilex 500mg once in morning and double dose i.e. two tablets of Epilex 500mg at bedtime. Is there any side effects of Epilex 500mg if I use it for some years? please I'm very much concerned about it.

As per Doctors advice Epilex chrono 500 should be taken life long so that i am taking it with Mazotol 200 since 15 years is there any side effect? ## All medications carry the risk of causing side effects, the ones listed by the NIH for this one may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, mood swings, and weight gain. Do you have a seizure disorder? Are you on any other medications?

I was on epilex chrono 500 mg twice when the medication was reduced and stopped. This happened twice during a period of 6 years (break after 3 years). But every time the hand tremor reoccured. Presently I am on levesam 500 mg thrice since Feb 2009. Its been 3 years and I dont think that the doctor wants to reduce the medication or intend on stopping it. Are there any side effects that I may face if I continue this medication? I also plan to start a family, could this medication harm my child? ## Levesam contains the active ingredient Levetiracetam, which is an anticonvulsant. Learn more Levetiracetam details here. There are possible risks associated with taking any medication, but at this point your doctor probably feels that the possible risks are outweighed by the benefits it's pr...
