How did it work for you? Any strong side effects? I will be starting it soon, just want to know if anyone has any experience with it.
BRIVIACT made my son angry at times. He became aggressive when things went wrong. Switched to Cenobamate which seems more effective in stopping the seizures, also on Lamotrigine.
Hello, Friends.

I am on Briviact and seizures now are monthly which is very unusual for me. I want to get off its not helping
I try to control myself as I know the temporal and frontal lobe damage I have as revealed in an MRI enhances my potential for irritability and anger.
