I have JUVENILE MYOCLONIC EPILEPSY and undergoing treatment for it since last 5 years. Recently I started taking FLUVOXIN-50 tablets because of other issues. Is it safe for epileptic patients to take this medicine ?

Hello
It depends upon the epileptic medication prescribed to you. Need to check If there is any interaction of that drug with fluvoxamin
Fluvoxamine may increase or decrease the levels of epilepsy medication in blood.
