Hello ,I am 33 years , 58kgs and has epilepsy. I take half dose of Levipil 500mg in the morning and a tablet in the evening. Since I start this medication I have noticed my anger has increased and i remain irritated all the time. I remain depressed all the time and have lost my food appetite. Also , I feel too lethargic .Is it possible to avoid these side effects?
hi dear, levipil may cause depression and secondary anger. so first stop levipil and consult your treating doctor. Anger and irritation suggestive of mood disturbance. Levipil cause such side effects. what ever you experienced all are side effects of levipil and you should change molecule. Thank you
