Also, your health care professional may be able to tell you about ways to prevent or reduce some of these side effects. Check with your health care professional if any of the following side effects continue or are bothersome or if you have any questions about them:
Onfi (clobazam) is a benzodiazapine for use as an add-on treatment for seizures associated with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS) in patients 2 years of age or older.
About 1 in 4 Americans diagnosed with epilepsy has seizures that resist treatment with other anti-epileptic drugs. Topiramate also prevents migraine headaches. Seizures are due to the abnormal activity (firing) of nerves in the brain, and the abnormal activity spreads to smaller or larger portions of the brain. Although topiramate's exact mechanism of action is unknown, scientific studies suggest that it may alter neurotransmitters within the brain.
