My mother, 80 years old had one seizure in december. Cause was diagnosed as some infection. She was given levera 250 twice a day. In the hospital she contracted multiple serious bacterial infections one after the other. Four months later she is somewhat better. Can levera dosage be reduced now as it can make the patient more prone to infections?

Levera does not make anyone prone to infections. The decision regarding withdrawl of antiepileptic depends on the reason of seizure.
