I have been on Epilim for 18 months and it has been successful in controlling seizures but am gaining weight (have gained 7kgs). I am doing exercise (cycling 30-45 mins EVERY DAY) and not even able to lose 1kg! Even though I am hungry I am not eating more but still keep picking up weight, especially around the middle. I have tried Topamax, but could not function and came off it. What alternatives can I try as I am at the stage that I want to come off the medication.
