Keppra- How too tell him i think it's becoming a problem?
Sun, 05/26/2019 - 11:27Topic: Medication Issues
My boyfriend of almost 13 years has changed into someone who is angry all the time. I honestly feel like it's keppra. He is ruining this family and I don't know what to do. His 18 year old daughter is moving out because of him and he just doesn't care. I love him and can't imagine my life without him but I also have a 12 year daughter to think of. The last 6 months to a year has been pure hell. He was on a higher dose which made him even worse, so he talked to his neurologist and they just lowered the dose. He doesn't think there is an issue now. I'm at my breaking point. I can't keep crying, his children can't take it, and he doesn't get it. Help.

This is happening at my house to my sweet husband is on keppra for a month had first seizure at 62 from an old brain injury, his anger is triggered from simple minor things and quickly turns to violence and dangerous impulses. I'm calling the doc tomorrow about changing these meds or I feel like I'm in danger of him: ( I don't wanna end up leaving him because of these meds that are suppose to be saving his life.
