muscle weakness with dillantin Posted: 06-25-08 19:18pm
Hi I have recently gone on dillantin to
go off keppra. Since the dillantin has now
settled in I have periods where I feel
really nauseated and start to get dizzy
and get muscle weakness. All symptoms are
like when you are going to faint. I looked
up side effects of dillantin and found it
can be a side effect if taken with keppra
but also it the dosage is too high. My
level is 78. I have been off keppra for 1
week now. My research coordinater got in
contact with my neuro and she suggested
taking all dosages at night and not take
the morning one. I usually have one 100mg
in the morning and 2 at night also 100mgs.
I have never been at the level of 78 when
I use to be on dillantin a year ago. I
also never had the side effect I
mentioened above.I personally think that
bvecause of my height and weight 60kgs it
might be a little too much. I have been on
dillantin now for around 1 month and can't
wait to come off it and try s better later
aed. Any ideas of the side effect
mentioned above.
