For Seizures "Zonegran has stopped my seizures, but I'd rather have seizures than deal with these side effects. I lost my job due to this medication. I am 21 years old and tried watching Harry Potter... couldn’t understand a thing. Words do not click for me anymore. I had to set reminders for everything because I can’t even remember simple tasks. Social activities are out of the question. I am so anxious and paranoid all the time. I get a feeling that someone is behind me even if I’m lying down or standing up against a wall. I haven’t battled with depression that’s been this intense before. This stuff makes me feel non-existent. All I want to do is sleep. It made me weak physically, emotionally, and mentally. It’s changing my personality and my relationships. It made me so angry and hurtful. It’s scary stuff. I wouldn’t recommend this medication, especially for those who already cannot communicate clearly due to age or disability."

For Seizures "This medication is toxic. I was on it and Vimpat for years, and it made me so sick that I couldn’t walk. All of the doctors couldn’t figure out what was wrong with me, and I was in the hospital for 9 days. I stopped the meds as a last resort. It affected my mental health, ability to think, and gave me weakness, numbness, muscle cramps, dizziness, and a chronic pain that felt like my entire skeleton was in a pressure cooker."

For Seizures "Not a fan of Zonegran, it did not improve my seizure condition at all and caused hyperglycemia, increased hunger, loss of muscle, and memory impairment."
