I am taking Levipil 750 since 2 years.I am always feeling drowsy,get angry immediately,forget things,don't feel hungry ,and loss of hair also.Are these the sympoms of this medicine.I am also taking Encorate Chrono 300 with it. ## My father, Mr. Kanchan Datta, an epilepsy patient is taking LEVIPIL750 and tetrafol plus for last 9 months. Can he continue tetrafol plus with LEVIPIL750? Actually doctor which we prescribed told him to continue it for 3 months. But my father, Kanchan Datta wants it to continue more. Is he doing correct? Moreover his weight increasing too much ND has short temper and his anger has been increased? So I will be highly obliged if any good neurologist give me suggestions?

Hi, my son is 8 yrs old and he had a seizure attack 2 times (in Jan 2015 and Nov 2016) and he is taking Levipil 500 mg, but before his second attack he had taken 250 mg, then the doctor increased it to 500mg. Could you please tell me how long this medicine should be taken for or when it should be stopped? It's been almost 2 years so far. ## If he has epilepsy, he may need to take this medication, or another one for the rest of his life to help prevent dangerous seizures. There is nothing wrong with it, so he should take it, as long as his doctor deems it safe for him to do so. The NIH lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, mood swings, and weight gain. Is he on any other medications?
