I have taken phenobarbitone since 14 and they are the best for me, was on Epanutin also. Before that Valium.
Epanutin isn't a kind drug. Been on Keppra but they have stopped working for me and make me so tired.
Going for a blood test tomorrow arghhh. Sleep well and think happy thoughts xx Been 7 years without a fit then had one when my Doc decided to raise my Phenobarbs Grrr lol

I was on phenobarbital and dIllanri. It messed me up. All they did is keep adding more if I was still having seizures. I took over 20 pills a day. That's when I was about 8years old. My gums were so swollen that it covered half of my teeth.
