Is Depakote, Trileptal, Or Keppra The Best?

It's hard to really say because they all affect everyone differently. The other thing is that it really takes at least 6 months before you can tell whether a drug is working or going to work properly. Also, all these drugs have slight differences in the way they work. Having said that the stats probably say Keppra is more favoured but at the end of the day, it just comes down to what works.

Depakote worked well for me, but I was ordered off it due to its liver damage
Went to Keppra till it wasn't working well then: Onfi, Zonisimide and ultimately Xcopri which worked the best
