Managing Side Effects
Wed, 01/13/2016 - 12:29Hello!
I was taking 500mg Keppra 2x a day for nearly two years and I basically felt stoned every day. I was lethargic and I could not get through a day without a nap, so my school work suffered. I recently lowered my dosage to 750mg ER, and I can now go through an entire day without a nap and function on 7-8 hours of sleep. Unfortunately, my nausea is unbearable. Has anybody suffered from extreme nausea on their medication and were you able to manage it?
Any feedback would be helpful! Thank you!
