Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi, I am 26 years married girl. I am a patient of epilepsy. At present i take oxetol 300 twice in a day. recently i do eeg & blood test. all reports came normal. my neurologist prescribed me to take levipil 500 twice a day. is there any side effect of the tablet.
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I am happy to hear your seizures are under control.
Levipil is an anticonvulsant and may help to control your symptoms. However, like other drugs, it does have its own side effects. Most people do tolerate this drug though. Some common side effects may include: aggression or anger, headache, loss of appetite, mood swings, double vision, anxiety, and shivering.
I will advise you take the drug as prescribed by your doctor and observe any side effects and report to your doctor.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Mbuomboh Veranso
