I have been taking keppra for a year now. My current dose is 3,000mg of extended release every day. I have had anywhere from mild seizues to a Grand mal seizure which nearly took my life. I also have advanced alzheimers. I have not had one seizure since starting keppra. My ability to function on my own again is all thanks to keppra. For me it has been a miracle drug ( with side effects). I don't know how much time the drug will buy me but I will enjoy the time I have been given back.

How many seizures have you had in total? When did they start? Seizures can be reoccurring or isolated. In my case, I had 2 seizures in a years time and now have not had one in another years time and am weening off Keppra. My point is we do not know if it is the pills stopping a person from having seizures or just the body itself just not having seizures anymore. The body heals itself sometimes and sometimes not. We just do not know. God Bless!
