Hi,
Frisium can cause drowsiness, short term memory loss in some individuals. If you had break through seizures and then it was added then maybe changing the medication will help otherwise most of the people get used to the medication after initial symptoms. You can try taking half a tablet that is 2.5mg then gradually build up. For acidity you can try Tab Omeprazole 20 my once a day before breakfast for a few days and avoid tea, coffee oily and spicy foods.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
