My daughter started taking this medicine since December 2023 and she lost a lot of weight throughout this time plus had a kidney stone. This last time we saw her Epileptologist, he changed the prescription to lacosamide instead. Her seizures are 100% under control being on.Zonisamide and Lamotregine, but unfortunately, she has a lot of side effects such as emotional, bad memory, and losing weight
