Re: [epilepsy] When should the Trileptal start to work?

It does take a while for the Trileptal to get in the blood stream and reach
it's theraputic level. Hopefully, you will notice some difference soon.
If it looks like its not working, be sure to contact your neurologist and
let him know. Did they give you Diastat for the seizures that last 5
minutes or longer?

Melody is 8 months and on Trileptal once a day for this week then twice a
day starting next week. When should we see the Seizures die down a little?
Shes still seizing pretty bad. I mean its like their getting worse in some
aspects she had them more yesterday then she has ever at home and far as i
know shes not sick. No fevers or anything.

How concerned should i be with my 2 year old and Epilepsy? She did this
weird jerking/twitching in her whole body last night in her sleep ..She hasnt
done it this afternoon during her nap.But it scared me yet i dont want to
be one of them moms that run to the E.R. just becuase my baby has Seizures
and she moves the wrong way. She has Horriable night terrors. So that might
have been it.
