What Causes Frequent Hunger?
Hi, I was instructed by my doctor to use VINLEP 300MG (twice a day) for epilepsy.
and I have been doing so for the past 4 years and two days back it trgrd again.
So i was asked to take torleva XR 500 mg(after dinner) in addition to VINLEP 300MG.
Since then am feeling hunger very often even in the midnight,though I had stomach full.

Hi,
* Likely to be related to drug-induced effect over certain secretions in the brain controlling the satiety and appetite levels of the body.
* Should discuss the same issue when you do follow up with your consultant for necessary changes in the dosage or formula.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
