Aptiom medication issues

CDC funded page

Not a CDC funded Page

Does anyone here take aptiom for seizures? I have a family member that has been on it for about 6 or so months now and have been told he was being sexually in appropriate. Has anyone dealt with this? Anyone have a seizure medication that would possibly reduce a sex drive? He was ran over by a car in 2017 and then had a stroke in 2018 but has only recently been like this. Any advice would be wonderful as we are very new to this
