I continue to have seizures despite regular Levera 1000 dosing. What should I do?
Asked by Female, 50 · 1 month ago
If you continue to have seizures when using Levera 1000, your epilepsy is not completely under control. See a neurologist to assess compliance, triggers, drug levels, or to add or modify medication,?do not alter dosages on your own. To safely modify treatment, more testing (EEG, review MRI, labs) might be required.
