Cenobamate (Xcopri) is a new antiseizure medication that is very effective in controlling the seizures when every other drug fails. Today with Professor Gregory Krauss from Johns Hopkins, we will explain everything about this new medicine and how to use it to decide if it is a good fit for you.
Correction: Cenobamate was approved after two Phase II trials and a large safety trial with no large Phase III trials, which is usually required for other medications.

They tried this medication and tried taking me off of Clobazam and Lacosamide, it was terrible. I got to 100mg and I started getting so dizzy and off balance I fell down multiple times in a day. It interacted terribly with other medications. I absolutely don't recommend taking it with Lacosamide if the person taking it doesn't live with another person to monitor them for falls. Just my experience.

Hi Doctor, My daughter is having more than 25 seizures/day. She has generalized seizures along with a genetic condition. It’s been horrible. My little princess is in constant struggle just to take a breath. She is on Lamictal 300mg and Xcopri 400mg/day. She is also on Diamox for Hyperventilation and breath holding spells. She Hyperventilates and hold her breath to the point of turning blue. She has been on the Ketogenic diet. She was better at some point but now, nothing seems to works. We have tried more than 10 different medications and nothing works. Please help.

Lifestyle changes and breaking free of the illusions of our modern society being Life, and regaining our natural ways of Harmony within and with Nature. Stress is #1... try this n try that n suffer from side effects and seizures still, is their way. Look to indigenous responses/views on seizures. Like Heart Disease, humans have gotten so far into darkness just for modern society/cultures expectations and indoctrination. Soul sickness can't be addressed by lab coats,and they tiptoe around to avoid it. 35yrs old with epilepsy since 2007 (every single test and study has been 100% normal) Not discrediting physical lesion or tumor but even with them, the spiritual aspect and way of believing and living effects greatly! We are organic beings not meant to be in this artificial 'concrete jungle' . Against our deepest truest self. Become aware and heal ourselves before too late ❤

As per research, topamax can be helpful for certain types of seizures, especially Atonic or drop seizures. However, Topamax can also raise risk of kidney stones. Keppra is good for myoclonus and tonic clonic, but can also exacerbate seizures in some people so you need to communicate with your child's neurologist if you see any reported and known side effects of prescribed meds. Keppra can also increase aggression in some people. Be aware and discuss with your sons neurologist. God bless you.

Hi Justina, had the same experience with Briviact, it was horrible. Anxiety, depression, anti-social behaviour, no appetite. I understand you're scared, and, yes, you always have to discuss it with a professional. I just can tell for me and others I know, that Xcopri doesn't make psychiatric problems (just in my and my known cases!) and that was the only thing relevant for me, now taking it for 1,5 years. Don't know if that was what you were scared of. But yes, there are things like double seeing, light clumsiness etc. in the beginning or if you take it without eating. I'm just so thankful not having to take Briviact anymore. For me Xcopri works. I'm not seizure free, but a reduction about 50% and starting extremely slow. And that also in the time, when I was reducing briviact. Maybe now its going to stabilize. Good luck!

@@lukasmoma1 Yes that's exactly why I'm scared! Those other three new medications just gave me a paranoia problem with trying anymore new medication I guess. I also take Lorazepam occasionally if I have an aura, after a seizure or if I have more than one in a day. Lorazepam may be in the same category with some of these new meds but it's an old drug and they always use that or Diazepam when I've had a grand Mal seizure. I appreciate your response and I am glad it's working for you.

Please read the information list about the side effects of each medicines . My daughter also was aggressive under lamotrigin...Would you try to find a clever doctor who should understand the influence of menstrual periods on epilepsy seizures and hormonal status at all.? Generally , for last 30 years it may be just the next representative of new generation of anti epileptic drugs that attempts to be the best . We have just to hope on it.

I am no Dr. And this is def something you should discuss with them. But as someone who if I see you mean Lamotrigine (Lamictal for brand). And I was on that for 12 years and oh yes it can cause aggression.😳

I never knew I had epilepsy. I was diagnosed with epilepsy at 57 years old. I had seizures before 57 but no one ever told me that it was epilepsy. In August of 2023 I had my 4th grand mal seizure so I went to Weston Cleveland Clinics epilepsy clinic. I have tried 6 meds and they make me feel really bad. Some made me want to hurt myself. But as soon as I got off them I felt better but the seizures immediately go bad again. I have asked Dr Garcia for different medications they have not worked either. I’m on lococimide and it’s ok but I still am having small seizures.

Right now I’m on Lamictal that’s it. It has no side effects I think it helps with about 50% on my seizures. I really want brain surgery. I’m so tired of this I don’t even get excited anymore when I go seizure free I might take this my but, you said only 25% of people go grandma Free? I don’t know what to do anymore my seizures are nocturnal anyway that’s only reason why I’m safe because I’m in bed when they happen
