medication issues and dealing with college

Sat, 09/20/2014 - 12:26

I have had seizures for almost 10 years now , and have been taking Zonegran (Zonisamide) for the past 8 years. The medication has worked well for me but recently after entering into graduate school , I have trouble with the side effects. Mostly I often feel tired , and have trouble concentrating when having to study. I was hoping to discuss how others deal with side effects of their medication while in college , or in a busy job.
