CLOBAZAM MAKES ME SO SLEEPY

Mon, 03/11/2019 - 21:36
I'm a 17 year old girl, 4'10, and 105 lbs. I'm on 225 mgs of lamictal twice a day, 600 mgs of zonengran twice a day, and 10 mgs of clobazam twice a day. I've already gotten over the delirious and drunkeness side effects of clobazam, but I've only been taking it for about a month. It still makes me so tired. It's not tolerable.

I hope your doctor will work

I hope your doctor will work with you to find a medication mix that will address your seizures, and won't make you so drowsy.

Don't try to push through

Don't try to push through side effects for too long before discussing them with a doctor. There may be better options.
