Hi, I am epileptic since last 20 years or so. I have been on medication most of this time. I was off medication for few years as my course was complete without any sezuire. But again my medicine started in 2013 due to relapse of the same. Since then I am taking medicines again. Recently my drug was changed. Initially I was taking regretful, then it was changed to oxetol and Now I am taking Levanue 1500 mg in a day. It?s been 5 years of my marriage. My neurologist says that I will have to continue my medication even during pregnancy whereas my gynaecologist says I will have to stop it. I cannot decide what should I do. I suffered an attack few days back only. Is it safe to bear a child while consuming this medicine?

Better to continue the medications, ask your gynaecologist to suggest medicines which can save your child from the adverse effect of your routine medications. Don?t worry! All the very best.
