Dear Lybrate user, as valparin can not control the convulsion, your daughter needs reevaluation. Particularly regarding the type of epilepsy. Sometimes we need to change the medication or we can also add another one to control the seizure, depending on the seizure type. Feel free to consult with me with all your reports. Stay safe.

Tab levera (leveteracetum) is safest antiepileptic in pregnancy ,every antiepileptic drug has some degree of teratogenicity ,but leveras is the lowest and teratogenicity of valporate is highest.
Antiepileptics should be taken during pregnancy because epileptic attack during pregnancy is very harmful for the baby.

I was diagnosed with dm 2 about two years back. Iam on amaryl-m1 bd & has hba1c of 7. I started feeling extra sensation under the feet, heaviness in foot, leg, thighs from about a month or two, some pain in hip area and finally difficulty in lifting one leg about 2 weeks days back along with knee weakness in one leg although other leg has been affected to a lesser extent till date. I never experienced very sharp pain & 2 weeks back had mild pain in my buttocks for about a week. The loss of movement in the 2 directions direction in the leg & knee weakness was quite quick about 10-12 days back. Now I do not feel any pain but had some falls primarily on account of knee weakness or weakness in right leg. Mri scan, ct scan were ok but problem was reported in nerve conduction test in both legs but mainly in right leg. Was diagnosed with peripheral neuropathy or diabetic amyotrophy which correlates with my overall symptoms. Doctor put me on 8 day course of prednisone (40mg-10mg) with insulin. My sugar with amaryl m1 as on now is under control & I take light food with reasonable physical activity & sugar levels now seems to be ok 92 fasting /140 pp. Also started visiting a physiotherapist from today. As of know there is appears to be some improvements in my walking (can walk 15-20 min at a stretch inside home) though weakness in one leg & knee persist. I cannot drive due to difficulty in movement of my right leg when trying to move it sideways while sitting. It is also not possible to lift the right leg against gravity when laying down though backward lifting & movement on sideways when lying on one side are intact. Have been prescribed pregaba m 75 (hs, neurkind+. Have no pain of any type. My questions 1) has peripheral neuropathy reached a plateau ie. Stopped or not 2) is pregabalin needed in my case as I have no pain, i. E. Whether it play a role in nerve regeneration or is overall beneficial in such situation 3) can I expect improvement in my right leg in 1-2 months time with sugar control & exercises.

1. Peripheral neuropathy is a on going process even in normal individuvals as age advances due to deficiency of vitamins mainly b12
2. In your case pregabalin is needed for some time 3. Nerve regeneration is impossible for anyone 4. Definitely you can expect improvement in the right leg in 1-2 months with good control of sugar & exercises.

Sweet smelling urine has various causes from just a lack or fluid intake, infections, metabolic diseases, presence of rare organic/ inorganic elements in urine etc. Rather than speculating reasons for it, it would be more appropriate to consult a physician get the examination and investigations done.

Dear lybrate-user,
you can give your mom valparin alkalets 500 mg itself not only today, even hereafter. Probably she may need a little extra dose of valparin alkalets compared to valparin chrono. But that is not immediate. When you go back to cip next 3 months, please inform about change of medication. The psychiatrist there will adjust the dose, if needed.

It totally depends on for how long you are on drugs. Whether you r having epilepsy episodes at present or when you had your last EEG done. Definitely without these and detailed history you should not advised to taper down your drugs but if you r having drugs side effects like weight gain or something else then you can switch over to other drugs.

Yes, you can take tab. Frisium almong with valparin chrono, if your seizure recurrence happened in spite of taking valparin regularly even missing a single dose
also avoid sleep deprivation and stress.
