"I have severe epilepsy. I was one of the first in the U.S. to have a different brain surgery, a laser ablation. I have been on almost every antiseizure medication, and Xcopri is what I have used for the last two years after reaching saturation point with gabapentin. Xcopri at different doses has varied. I have sleepwalked and thought my day was starting, not that it was time to rest until the next day. I became erratic, angry, agitated."

"Made my already bad memory worse, was extremely dizzy, and it started giving me horrible rage and anger issues. Talked with a doctor, lowered the dosage, took B6 to help with the other side effects. Got the dosage right and it worked wonders in stopping the seizure onset."
