Hi All, been on Keppra 13 yrs. 1000 mg. bi-daily for (nocturnal only) generalized seizures. Side-effects severe agitation and overall nastiness. I made a back-to-back switch to 100 mg. Brivaracetam (Briviact) bi-daily. Briviact is similar to Keppra on a molecular level, so that figures. It is supposed to lessen the agitation and it did. Saved my relation. Took a year to wean off the Keppra side-effect without generalized seizures. Still having focal seizures.
