Opinions On Fycompa?
My neurologist added Fycompa to my lamictal and vimpat. The lamictal and vimpat combo has worked pretty well for the most part, but I’ve had a few breakthroughs and serious insomnia. My neurologist said that lamictal can cause insomnia. I had no idea. I’ve been taking it for years, but I had also been taking medication to help me sleep up until a few months ago. I am nervous about starting Fycompa, but hopeful as well. He is going to ween me off lamictal completely over the next 6 weeks. Any… read more

Fycompa And Depression
My neurologist increased my Fycompa dosage from 2mg to 4mg at the beginning of the month. A week later, I started struggling with depression issues- feeling sad, angered, tired, helpless and feeling like I'm a failure. Is there a correlation?
I'm off of that medication now. Came off of it last Saturday and I'm feeling so much better. Less confused, more alert, and a lot less depressed. Had a zoom call with my neurologist yesterday. He… read more
Stay Away From Fycompa. That Medication Is Evil
I started taking Fycompa and boy it turns me into a grumpy a-hole. It also makes me so dizzy it feels like I just got off an amusement park ride. I'm talking to my doctor to see if I can stop taking it. But stay away..Worst. Medication. Ever.

Anyone Else Dealt With An Insurance Company Change Your Medicine(s) To The Generic Brand Of What Your Doctor Prescribed?
Yes . My Dr. Always had to fight with the insurance ,to keep me on the brand name medications.
Has Anyone Had Reduced Side Effects By Splitting A Single Dose Into Twice Daily (10 Once A Day Into 5 Twice A Day)?
I'm on 10 of Clobazam (Onfi, Frisium) and it makes me really tired. I take it at night but I'm still tired all day. I was wondering if anyone had success with reducing Onfi's side effects by splitting their single daily dose into twice daily doses (10 at night into 5 morning and night)?
Edit: obviously, I’ll ask my doctor before I do anything, just want to hear about your experiences!
I started taking onfi about 6 months ago and this is exactly what happened to me. They had me at 10mg at night but was still so tired during the day I would almost fall asleep at the table. I… read more

Fycompa Side Effects
Is anyone else on Fycompa and dealing with negative side effects? I was placed on it in addition to Keppra, Carbatrol and Zonisamide and I have not been myself. Both my husband and I truly don't know if the Zonisamide has had any positive effects. My seizure activity has increased in the last 6 months and a Neurologist I see since moving to Florida from Chicago prescribed them. My husband has not been happy with the Neurologist.
