I’m on it . I’m taking a 12mg and a 2 mg of Fycompa. It seems to be working to an extent. But I can say that about all 5 meds that I’m taking, because my seizures are still not 100% controlled.

I also take it at bedtime. I'm also on Neurontin (I have trouble with migraines), Depakote, and Trileptal.
