Any medicine used for treating your condition will have same side effect. No point in thinking of alternate medicine. You should never consume alcohol while taking any medicine treated for your condition. Alcohol will react with levipil will produce somnolence which can give threat to your life. The medicine you may have to take throughout your life.
