Seizures
"I have partial complex seizures. I also take tegretol XR and Diamox. Before Vimpat I was a seizure at least 3-5 times a month, especially after my menstruation. But I can say with the vimpat I don&#039;t have seizures, I will a little jump here and there but nothing major. The major side effects I have experience are the following: weight gain (about 50 pounds), dizzy when I intially take it if I don&#039;t eat enough food, and sometimes my words and thoughts would be off. lately I notice that I fall a lot but I don&#039;t know if its related or the vimpat. But I can say it has controlled my seizues. It didn&#039;t increase my appetite but I have gained a lot of weight, my Dr say its normal with Vimpat. I receive Vimpat for free with the patient assitance."
