Should Keppra Be Weaned Off Completely Before Starting Vimpat?

my doctor just took my daughter off keppra after 4 weeks because of horrible side effects behaviorally and started her on Vimpat...he does not think we have to wein her off keppra and I am concerned about that. She has only been on keppra for 30 days. We started the vimpat today. She is also taking Topamax 200 mg 2 times daily...
