Dear Pari, Levipil is a known medicine for fits. However, about the dosage and duration of treatment considering your daughter is also autistic you can take second and even third opinion. There is nothing wrongin that.

I am taking Levipil500mg for the past 2 1/2 months as part of treatment for Trigeminal Neuralgia. No side effects so far. However, anxiety is something you get and will have to overcome on your own

Thanks for the clarification. I still would like to know if this medicine will stimulate the nerve block injection given a week back and make it work or would only help in containing the pain?

Sambamurthy, as I stated in my first post, this contains the active ingredient Levetiracetam, which is an anticonvulsant, these medications have also been shown to help with certain types of nerve pain.

Common side effects may include: nausea, dizziness, headache and anxiety.

Is there anything else I can help with?

I am a patient suffering from Trigeminal Nueralgia identified since 2006, was getting along normal with Tegritol CR200 & Lioresal 10mg till last month. As a next step I underwent Nerve block with Glycerol injection a week back, did not work and pain remained. Doctor after several consultation and changes in medicines prescribed Levipil 500mg and I have started getting some relief. Is this medicine a stimulant to activate the injection given last week or is the pain relief is by means of this medicine itself? What are the side effects if it is going to be prescribed for a long period?

Heena, not being able to breathe and turning blue is not a normal effect of any medication, while it's taking effect.

When you were at the hospital, what did they say caused it?

As to whether or not its epilepsy, no one is really going to be able to give you a definitive answer just from what you have posted on here.

However, what I would recommend is if you have had such problems with this medication and the tests didn't show any signs of anything, then see a different doctor ad get a second opinion.
