"I have been on Trileptal for about 1 1/2 years. It has worked for the most part with keeping the seizures at bay. I have gone from having around 5 seizures a month when I was first diagnosed with epilepsy to around 2 a year. When I first was diagnosed I was put on dilantin which did not work. I continued to have seizures; one of which resulted in me crashing my car through my garage door. The problems I have with Trileptal are that it has caused me to break out with acne. Especially on my back and face. Also it causes me to have a drunken sensation for about half an hour after I take it. I talked to the doctor about this and she told me it was because I was eating either right before or after."
