: : I recently went through a 24 hour EEG, which confirmed that I no longer have seizure activity. This is a major plus!
: : So, my doctor informs me that I can come off of the dilatin now, and of course I want to.
: : Each day I take 2 pills @ 100mg each, and I've come to notice that this is a low dosage compared to most. But anyway, my main concern now is: are there any side effects or any weird sensations tha I may incur?? If anyone out there has any input to this, please let me know as well. Thank you so much!!
: Coming off slowly is important. Dilantin comes in 30 mg. capsules which allows for gentle tapering. Good luck!
