CENOBAMATE vs LACOSAMIDE

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):

This post is a bit long, I'm sorry.

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

It's a nontrivial hassle to treat lacosamide as a control and it definitely has delayed patient care in every hospital I've worked at. You have to pop it out of the vault, fill out a compounding sheet, walk it over to the nurse instead of tubing it, etc. I know of no instances of lacosamide abuse o

like for lancosamide it states that Lacosamide is effectively removed from plasma by hemodialysis. Following a 4-hour hemodialysis treatment, AUC of VIMPAT is reduced by approximately 50%. Therefore dosage supplementation of up to 50% following hemodialysis should be considered. In all renal impai
