Vimpat
A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question 💭

Has anybody has a bit of a rash from Vimpat. I am getting some rash and I am not sure if it’s from the Vimpat. I also am a celiac so I am wondering if it is just letting me get a slight rash. I also on occasion do get some acne ( whiteheads ) in the hair of my head.

Thank you. I get some funky rashes. It was bad on Keppra, on Lamitcal it a rash from my armpits to my Ankles so my neurologist switched me to Vimpat. She said there might not be anything that I will not give me some rash. Kind of sucks.

I’m on Vimpat, and I do have a small rash. I had it biopsied, but I don’t recall what the diagnosis was. I’m not sure if it was due to the Vimpat either.
