My son 18 diagnosed at 16 took depakote worked great but was losing
his hair. Switched to keppra was to out of it to function, then switched to Lamictil currently at 550 a day with 250 of keppra. seems the more we increase lamictil the jerks have increased, absense seizures that we had not noticed before and a grand mal seizure after a year free of seizures. i have asked if possibly this drug will not work. Lamictil is to reach 600 per day blood levels drawn at 500 a day and 550 was at 14.7 i have conflicting information if you can even tell from blood levels. Please give any information
