Anyone taking Keppra for seizures?

I've been taking it for 10+ years and have had no issues with anger. Reading comments on other support groups I've seen that it can affect sleep. I have trouble sleeping.

Hi, @royanthony - welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. Thanks for sharing your experience with taking levetiracetam (Keppra).

You mentioned trouble sleeping connected to this medication. Has your doctor had any suggestions about how to counteract this sleep issue?

I’ve been taking Keppra for 8 years. It does a great job controlling my seizures and so I don’t complain, but I think it makes me sleep more.
