Vimpat
seizures
"I have been on Vimpat for four years and have been seizure free since starting it. 

I do get a little dopey an hour after I take it; however, it's not to the degree that it interferes with work or driving. The side effects lessen the longer I've been on it. 

I'm in NC, and my insurance does cover all but a $50 copay. 

This medicine is a life saver. I've tried Keppra, Topamax, Lamictal, and Depakote with no success.  My doctor does yearly Vimpat blood level labs to make sure I keep at a therapeutic level and also screens vitamin D and B12 levels every six months since they can be affected by Vimpat. 

Good luck on your journey."
