Hello,
Levetiracetam don't have any much troublesome side effects but Eptoin has. Please ask your doctor to taper off Eptoin and increase dose of Levipil for optimum control. You can consider opinion of a neurologist for sure.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
