I have been on keppra for abot 10 years and I take 750mg 3 mornig and night which is the max dosage. which means 4500 mg per day.
It works fines and It has reduced my seizures and the length it time in the seizures and getting back to normal
My neuro have also added Vimpat at 300 mg a day which is also bringthe number if seixured down. Our hope is that th combination can get me seixure free.
Good luck

Okay, so it's been a few hours since I last posted: I had a doctors appointment today with my local neurologist and he upped my dosage at his thoughts and my request from 2000mg per day to 3000mg per day. Also he gave me a script for valium so that I can take one if I notice a seizure coming on, I can take one and hopefully offset some of the panic associated with it. So hopefully, this will help prevent additional seizures going forward. I'd still like to hear from some of you concerning the things I mentioned previously.
