3 weeks ago I started a trial of generic keppra named VETIRA (levetiracetam). All I can say is it makes me feel very bad that I had to stop. Is there a sense od trying real Keppra if generic levetiracetam didn't work for me?

Did anyone of you have tried the generic version of keppra?There are many meds that have levetiracetam and they are much cheeper than Keppra. I red that in some experiment on small group of people 41% of people on generic levetiracetam must go back to original Keppra beacuase of seizures. But this was on group of epileptics so its no doubt it is something different (maybe similar at some point but different) than HPPD. So if any of you can say something about it and have some experience it will be nice.

I just want to try a maybe one month trial is its worth to keep searching hard all the time and figuring out how to get this med, its simply

I think is the way to go beacause of no other options left. I want to try if it makes something good for me. If yes, I will be full motivated to get this even go to another country or order from internet for dramatic prices(I really have no idead how). But first I must know if it is worth.I'm from Poland

Hi, In my country is still impossible to get Keppra prescription, I'm trying to get it for about 3 years with no results. I read in this forum many of posts that keppra didn't help some of you. So if anyone have unnecessary Keppra left I will be very grateful if you can sell it to me. I really want to try but I'm powerless. Peace

and good luck for u. Peace

thanks for help but is not as easy to lie of epilepsy , 2 years ago before my EEG doctor told me that i must withdraw clonazepam by 3 days before EEG test. So i did it, and during the fotostimulation (one of stages in EEG test) i had an "attack" something similar to OOBE but more with panic i think . After then the left half of my body including head, hand etc hahe been petrified. The neurosurgeon came and give me some meds on my tongue. I don;t know what really hapened but in diagnosis they wrote " test was distorted of post-meds" ( i don;t know if I wrote it right , my english is very poor in words but it was about that clonazepam have distorted my test result) That was untrue beacause i've done what they tell me to do, i didn;t take benzo 3 days before test! Some other doctor told me that i shouldn;t take benzos 2 weeks before test (!) so i have feeling doctors know shit beacause different doctors said samoething different. In this sick country no one even heard about HPPD, my psychiatrist too. They think that if something is rare or not to comletely explain, that dont exist.My first psychiatrist 3 years ago was trying to convince me that i have shizophrenia and wanted to send me to a mental illness hospital! I don;t know what to do, they are all like concrete heads fools that don;t even listen what i have to say and they don;t want to see any studies...Its nearly impossible to get keppra and even i you have a prescription some how and you are not a "epileptic with anticonvulsants resistance" you have to pay somethin like a half of mounthly payment from work! If anyone can help for example sending me keppra for some prices... or i dont know how but something.ehh don;t have words for this country. Monkey be carefull with cuting benzo like Jay said. 5mgs is lot. Each week or even 2 weeks remove only e little bit of tablet usig a knife to paw. 3 months is not a long time but enough to have some efects of withdrawal but i think if you want to withdraw then will be no problem to do this if you do it slowly. PS if someoe have some ideas or somethin for getting keppra give me a sign

Hi, I'm woundering, is here anybody from Poland who have HPPD? In my country neurologist don't want to give me a prescription for Keppra because it can be only prescribed when you have serious epilepsy. I'm on benzodizaepines now ( about 3 years) but I want to try Keppra because i've heard that it helps alot of people but it's impossible to get that i my sick country. If anybody can help or give me some advise I will be very grateful. Sory for my english and if I've posted in wrong place, mods please change the location of post. Peace for all HPPD sufferers
