What Medications Have You Found To Be Effective To Control Partial Complex Seizures?

Did Anyone Have Night Terrors Before Being On Medication(specifically Lamictal) And Now Don't?
A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question 💭

Pre Epilepsy and specifically since adapting to Lamotrigine I used to have night terrors / hallucinations everyday for 2 weeks on and off roughly every 3 months. I've not had any after being on Lamotrigine for 8 months. It's now been over a yr since I had bad night terrors so I thought maybe it's from the medication given they are also used for bipolar disorder.

Vision
A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question 💭

I've been on lamotrigine which caused double vision only when I was having a toxic reaction. Now I'm switching over to trileptal and it's seeming that it's constant now. Whether I'm wearing my glasses or not. I'm going to go get an eye exam once I'm up to the full dose without the lamotrigine.

Anyone have similar? I know it's a potential effect of a lot of the AEDs

Several years ago I took a combo of Lamictal and Trileptal. It work pretty well. It really helped improve My mood. It did cause Me to loose ALOT of weight and strength!!

Zonegran And Insomnia
A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question 💭

My son is switching from trileptal to zonegran currently. He just started having issues sleeping at night the last week or so - he is now taking 150mg of zonegran at bedtime and is weaning off trileptal (now at 600mg AM and PM). Will be checking blood levels of both the end of this week before our next decrease of trileptal.

Has anyone had insomnia on zonegran? If so, did moving it to AM help at all?

Thanks!

Depends on the state any type of epilepsy you have. Ask your neurologist
