Hello-
women taking levepsy may develop pcos, while men may have sperm abnormalities and/or sexual dysfunction. Liver enzyme inducing aeds may also cause menstrual and sexual disorders in women and sexual dysfunction in men. Newer aeds are much safer but studies still suggest reduced sexuality and erectile dysfunction.

Both of them have the same drug.
But each ones absorption and duration of action is modified by manufacturing process of the drug.
If your doctor has prescribed it for fits control, she/he must have calculated the peak action of the drug around the time of fits. So, take accordingly for effective control of fits.
