[epilepsy] Another Keppra insomnia question...

 

Okay, so I'm comin' up on my third week with Keppra. My doc reduced my dose last week to 1000 mg from 1500 and added Benadryl at night to help me sleep. I can sleep 4-5 hour stretches now, and if I can sleep in, I immediately take more Benadryl and fall back to sleep within about 15-20 min.
 
I would hate to do this forever, but I'm wondering...for those of you who have had this problem with it, when--if ever--did it actually stop? I would hate to have to get off of it because I know it's working, and nothing else I have taken has ever--and I mean ever--so much as touched my SPs. I have not had a single one since starting it. :)
 
I welcome and appreciate any and all advice!
 
Thanks so much!
 
LIZARD :)
