Generic Keppra Article
A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question 💭

I just read this article on generic keppra causing seizures: https://epilepsytalk.com/2010/07/17/keppra-generic-seizure-drug-contributing-to-more-seizures-side-effects-and-death/ Has anyone experienced this and if so, did taking the non-generic form fix the issue?

I cant take keppra, it caused me to almost unbalancing and headaches, studdering..man it just was not for me. I called my doctor up for 2 weeks with this symptom and then finally i got a call from her saying i should get to the hospitalasap because i might be going through a slight heart attack!! She was my doctor..got me a new one and she is awesome!!
