Next steps in antiepiletic treatment
I am on the following antieplileptics since 5 years now:
Levipil 1000mg - twice a day
Eslizen 400mg - once a day
My last visit to doctor was in 2020 January, and since then I couldn't visit the doctor due to Covid and living in a different city. During all the previous visits, my EEG's have been completely normal. Also my MRI is also absolutely normal. My questions are:
Till how long will I have to take these medicines.
Are there any harmful side effects of taking these two medicines for a long term?
Also, due to side effects of the medicines, the skin of my upper back is covered with heat boils and rashes. Are there any alternative drugs that I can shift to?
If so how is the procedure?
