Ospolot???

Sun, 01/08/2006 - 18:53
Hi guys, just wondering if anyone has any info or can share their experiences bout being on ospolot? i'm on a combination of epilim, topomax and frisium, but it's adding the ospolot that seems to have done the trick. My seizures are relatively well-controlled, but it is hard to manage side-effects at times. Main side-effects are insomnia, dizziness and a kind of shaky feeling - hard to describe. Initially when i went onto both ospolot and topomax, i lost a lot of weight, and the appetite suppressant kicks in harder when i change doses. However, that seems to have settled, but still i don't have a big appetite by any means! My problem is that it's difficult to work out which side-effect is from which med, and especially with my seizures as good as they are, i'm very reluctant to change anything. Thanks...
