Thanks for the query.
By doing an EEG (Electro Encephalo Gram) it is possible to know how is the condition in case of epilepsy. Based on that a neurologist should be able to decide with regard to treatment and usage of various drugs. As regards BP regular check up does help in adjusting the dosage of drugs being taken. In case of hypothyroidism TSH level is the guideline, should be maintained between 3 to 4 mU/L. Thanks.

UNless you have an EEG the diagnosis of epilepsy is uncertain and if you are advised to take the pills you need to take it. If needed you may get a second opinion.

Dear ,
are you still on topamac? Now that you are on carbamazepine (helpful for neuralgia and brain injury), you may not need topamac (for brain injury). Request your doctor whether you can reduce and stop it. Topamac reduces weight. Stopping it may help you to some extent. At this age weight reduction is good for your diabetes and other health conditions. With 65 kg, you are still not underweight.

Hi lybrate-user, I would like to say that the symptoms of slowness of movement what you have mentioned in a patient who is on Rispeidone and aripiprazole is most probably EPS (extra pyramidal Side effects) unless proved otherwise. There may be underlying or Co morbid Parkinsons disease. But in this position its difficult to diagnose as the Pt is on antipsychotic. Gabapentin has no role in decreasing antipsychotic induced slowness in movements. But its often used as a treatment of Akathesia which...more
