CENOBAMATE vs CLONAZEPAM

Hi, I was just hoping for some advice, or hearing if anyone else has had a similar experience, please? I have temporal lobe epilepsy, and take 250mg of Lamotrogine twice a day, 1.5g of Levetiracetam twice a day, and 200g of Cenobamate once a day. I have occasional seizures, maybe about 1 a week o

People often write here, with great specificity, about the the symptoms of their medication. I've tried lots of medicine over the years and apart from Keppra, which kind of wiped me out, I wouldn't say any have had really noticeable side-effects. I experience lots of the feelings that people write a

[first pic 16/6, second 9/9 and third is today] Hi everyone, I really need advice about my experience with isotretinoin (40mg daily) and how it might be interacting with my other medications. Here’s my situation: Current Medications: - Isotretinoin (Accutane): 40mg for acne - Ontozry (Cenobamate):

As well already know, many long covid patients who experience neurological symptoms have been found to have brain hypometabolism.

This post is a bit long, I'm sorry. I basically just want to know about your experiences with Xcopri and maybe get some perspective or advice (I know, of course, that you most probably are not healthcare professionals). It used to be super complicated to have it be covered in my country but not anym

I wanted to share my experience because there is a lot of scary / negative stories online about Cenobamate. Before I started taking it I almost talked myself out of it after reading stories online. I had to go on it because I tried every other drug and nothing was working, my seizures got worse or I

Hi, I’m interested to know other people’s experiences regarding Cenobamate. I was seizure free for over two years until two days ago when I had a focal aware seizure. I’ve then had four more today, only lasting a few seconds each. I currently take 10mg of Clobazam at night but have tried Lamotrigine

Hi all! I’ve been seizure free for 5 months (typically 1 per 6 months for 5 years). I have strong side effects that began with the addition of Lamotrigine to Carbamazepine. We’ve been reducing the Lamotrigine to see if that helps, but it hasn’t. Has anyone any experience with this interaction? What

Hi everyone, Hope you’re doing okay, or better. This week it’s been 4 years since my first manic episode. Since then, I haven’t relapsed. I’ll try to keep this short, but it will probably be a bit longer since I want to write everything that I would have wanted to read 4 years ago. **Here we go:** M

I’m a 33 year old female and have been diagnosed for 5 years now. I spent countless days, even years, trying to figure out what was wrong with me. I would be on google nearly every day asking questions and just thought I had bad anxiety along with my PTSD and ADHD. My head has been off since I was a

“I’m bipolar.” “I’m bipolar type 1” “I have bipolar disorder.” “I have bipolar disorder type 1.” “I have bipolar illness.” All those statements were attempts to describe myself after my diagnosis, Bipolar illness, at the ripe age of 25. The following years were defined by this list (this is not an

I just wanted somewhere to celebrate how good I'm FINALLY doing. I've been in and out of the hospital for three years now for reckless behaviour and all of the mania, and I knew that you guys would appreciate this. After 6 months of not being employed because my doctor said I just couldn't work, I'v

I hope you can understand me, since English is not my first language. So a few days ago I restarted my medication after like years of The Misery™, you know folks, being in a shitty state all day, drinking heavily and doing clonazepam to get away from the pain, losing all interest in things I used to

For context, I’m bipolar one, and had a gnarly manic and psychotic episode when I was 19 which got me hospitalized for two weeks. That’s when I got my diagnosis, and I’m now 23. I’ve now been through boatloads of therapy, have a very comfy and stable home situation, a therapist and psychiatrist I tr

I have tried Quetiapine, Olanzapine, Fluoxetine… I’m fucking done with the side effects, I gained so much weight was hungry all the time and no desire on anything like numb/zombie all the time. I’m now on 350 Venlafaxine and just quit Olanzapine and was prescribed Clonazepam 2mg and Ambien 10mg, whi
