For Seizures "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."

"In my childhood, the seizures were just lightheadedness that lasted 5 to 10 seconds, but around my early to mid-20s, they got heavier. For at least 20 years, I must have tried at least 20 different AEDs and combinations of them, but they either only barely worked, didn't work, or made it worse until, a few years ago, I got a VNS implant, which started making a difference, and a few months ago, I was prescribed 3x100 mg Xcopri per day with some other AEDs, and I haven't had a seizure in about 6 months! The main side effect for me is drowsiness, so I take it at night with my other nighttime AEDs. When I started taking them, they were a bit difficult to swallow (narrow throat), but it got better over time. I just hope the Xcopri keeps working for me, unlike many other AEDs I've taken over the years that worked a few weeks or months, then stopped for some reason."

For Seizures "Used in combination with lamotrigine. Been seizure-free for 7 months. Side effect: lack of energy and sleepiness (sleep 9-10 hrs a night plus a 30-60 min nap). NOTE: I cannot recommend this drug - only a doctor can."

For Seizures "Let me start by saying: ask your doctor to be honest about side effects and then list the pros versus the cons. My experience has been terrible, side effects that include nausea, abdominal pain, constipation, headaches, double vision, and severe dizziness. Add the fact that certain migraine medicines (Qulipta, Nurtec) interact with Xcopri was the deal breaker, but I tried to push through the first 3 weeks and failed. I was unable to do so because the side effects weren't worth adjunctive therapy. New isn't always the best."

For Seizures "I have been taking Keppra for 6 years, 1000 mg twice a day, and Depakote 500 mg twice a day. Have had breakthrough seizures the entire time. My new neurologist (who specializes in epilepsy) weaned me off Depakote and added Xcopri 500 mg. Thankfully and blessed, I have been seizure-free for almost a year!"

For Seizures "Seizures are great, but lots of side effects: slurred speech, off balance when I walk, constipation, weight gain, and tiredness. And these are some that I can think of."

For Seizures "Xcopri has been my favorite medicine for seizures since it blocks sodium ion channels and does good to GABA. The medicine has reduced my seizures to one per month."
