Anyone on this Anticonvulsant. I'm in UK might be called something different over in US. My son has just reached his last increase. 3 seizures last week during exercise, 2 of them anyway.

His Cenobamate is at 150 mg once daily. His seizures have improved although he did have 3 the week BRIVIACT stopped. He won't be reading this, he is Autistic and not remotely interested. I am his parent carer.

Christine: Cenobamate is a very effective anticonvulsant (AED). One factor about it, however, is it both raises and decreases the effectiveness of other AEDs someone may be taking, such as Tegretol and Dilantin. Here is a link to an article about Cenobamate you may read at your convenience:
