"Excellent medicine for me. I would not have been able to have been a teacher and business owner without its help. In 52 years, I have had approximately 7 seizures because of this medicine. It will be off the market in a month, and I hope the company that makes it reconsiders its decision, the other options for me are not that great."

"I have been seizure-free on this medicine for 30 years. My seizures were grand mal, and though I still have seizure activity in my brain, Mebaral controlled it with little to no side effects. I can't believe they took it off the market. I am a very successful actor and have had a career and life of extreme sports and adventures that would not have been possible were it not for this medicine. Now I am transitioning to phenobarbital. It's not the same, and there is a distinctly different set of side effects, including nausea, hangover effect, and lack of coordination."

"I've been on this for over 30 years and had maybe 10 seizures over that span. I am annoyed that they took something that worked off the market. When I was 12, I was put on phenobarbital and my body couldn't handle it, so the doc put me on Mebaral, and I wasn't a walking zombie and actually functioned. Now that they discontinued Mebaral, I have taken 3 other medicines in one year, and you've guessed it, I'm back on phenobarb. I plead with the makers to bring this back, PLEASE!"
