Keppra
A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question 💭

I’ve been on Keppra for 18 months, it’s worked very well, I had a surgery two weeks ago and I feel like I’m starting to have jerks in the last few days, anyone else ever had it stop working? Specifically after a major surgery?

It could be the surgery and not the Keppra. Maybe that's a side effect of Keppra

My Neurologist talk about having another Temporal Lobe Surgery. Since having 2 already and didn't work, why would I want another.. 🙄

I was on Keppra when I had my brain surgery. I don't remember anything wrong happening after that.

I have been on Keppra for years. I didn't have any side effects. I am also on Onfi. That is the best medicine for me.
