I've been on Xcopri for 3 1/2 years. Slept long periods and felt tired throughout the day at first. Adjusted my dose from 200mg down to 100mg at bed and haven't had those side effects anymore or any other for that matter.

I changed from Keppra to Xcopri. It’s working pretty well but I’m still in the process of the VNS. The only side effect I’ve really noticed with Xcopri is a lot of hiccups.

I take Xcopri... Clobazam, too. My limit is 250mg of Xcopri. Higher than that, I get extremely dizzy & unstable. I couldn't even stand straight.

Thanks all. My doctor had me go off the clobazam within a month, while going up slowly to 100mg on the Xcorpi. It's interesting that some of you are on a much smaller dose. So far I haven't been tired, and I actually think I'm more happy with this med (suffer from depression). The eczema is still a problem though.

@A MyEpilepsyTeam Member, I've been on Xcopri for 2 years. I did have problems with dizziness, at first, but that isn't a problem. I do have issues with changes in appetite, though. I have to take it as soon as get home from work (usually around 5:30 PM, otherwise I might have some more dizziness in the morning. All in all, its the main reason why I've been seizure-free for almost 3 years.. Good luck!
