For Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome "After trying many other anticonvulsants, we finally found one that works! Thank you so much to those who invented this drug. My daughter, 8 years old, used to have a gazillion seizures and drop attacks in a day. Now she has none! Yup! 0 attacks. She is seizure-free for a year now."

For Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome "Super happy my daughter has gone from 100 plus seizures a month to under 10. So truly happy and thankful! No major side effects, it does make her extremely thirsty, and she can only drink room temperature drinks. If colder, it makes her cough as if she is choking."

For Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome "Until Banzel, I was taking Ativan at least once every day. And the aftereffects left me really in a bad mood and sometimes aggressive. With Banzel, and my other seizure medicines, I haven't needed Ativan since December of 2009. I can even get out of the house. It works for me."

For Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome "Effective from the lowest dose, it stops seizures immediately. After 5 days on average, the dose is increased towards the optimum dose. The number and severity of seizures are significantly reduced. Tolerance to dose-dependent anti-epileptic activity develops, but it is a very valuable drug for resistant epilepsy."

For Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome "It works for my daughter with minimal side effects. One thing, though, is after over a year of taking it, it seems to be losing some effectiveness. Trying Onfi with it now."

"It completely stopped all of my seizures and I was able to get off all the other meds--which never worked. I was on 4 medications before I had control of my seizures."
