02 Jun 2014 I've been taking this medication for epilepsy since I was 12-13 yrs old. For about 16 years now. I started off on three pills a day a total of 600mgs a day. I slept through out my whole teenage years. It made me tired, forgetful, have memory loss, and no energy whatsoever. Now that I am almost 28 I found out more problems that I have including PCOS, hormonal issues, and fertility issues. I had a miscarriage back in 2009 and my husband and I have been desperately trying. I hope and can get off of this medicine soon so I can live my life already. I'm currently down to one pill a day. I take it before bed so I am not drowsy during the day. I have one good thing to say about this medicine it did help control my epilepsy.

19 Dec 2010 I have been taking epitol since I was 4 yrs old and I am now 42. I have no medical problems what so ever and I have been seizure free. I had a child while on epitol and with no mental or physical problems. I am a very active an outgoing person with a good out look on life. This drug has helped me accomplish that.

16 May 2009 Epitol saved me from the most severe pain I have ever experienced in my life. My trigeminal neuralgia was so severe that suicide was beginning to be an option. Taking the Epitol three times a day, on a regular basis has almost completely relieved my pain symptoms. I take the maximum dosage allowed and hope that I can continue to take it, as I never want to be in that much pain again.
