Increase Keppra or Tegretol dosage?

Wed, 03/22/2017 - 12:44
Hello, I'm taking 2x1000mg Keppra and 2x 400mg Tegretol daily. I'm having small seizures on this dosage, mostly at morning, at stressful situations or high phisical workload. I can't get to my doctor for a month so I will increase dosage but don't know which to increase first and for how much. Should I start with + 2x500mg Keppra or 2x200mg Tegretol...? Thank you for advice. klemen

I'm taking that dosage about 3-4 months (Keppra is an change for Lamictal). Dosage is not so high, so the adjustment will be made for sure.If i wouldn't care I would take higher dosage already.
