So I've Been Taking Lamtongine For Awhile And It Doesn't Really Work Unless I Take A Klonzpam. But I Still Have Seizures.

Is there any diets I can go on that might help. Especially with the tics that I have even though there less aggressive and not as common anymore unless something triggers them.

@A MyEpilepsyTeam Member, your doctor said Lamotrigne has the least side effects. I have taken it before and would feel otherwise. I have never taken Diamox. Here is a link on both meds and you decide,

I've already done that and my Dr. said to stay on lamotinge at 125 MG twice a day because he said that this one is the best one and has the least side effects. And he also put me on Diamox and it seems to be working but I hope that it keeps working.

If there is a medication 💊 that you feel isn’t working , you need to let your Dr. Know. He/she would need to check your medication blood levels. Decided from there if the medication dosage needs increasing, change to a different AED brand, or maybe add a medication to the medication you’re already taking.

It depends on how long is awhile. The same with Klonzpam. Some medications will take 4 to 6 weeks to adjust to your body. And some medications will conflict with others. To find out, here is a website, https://www.drugs.com/ to lookup your meds.
