Yes. There are many side effects of this medicine. Swelling in gums, low hemoglobin, weak bones, and pimples are common problems. If you didn't have any seizure attack since 4 years you can consult your doctor and taper down doses of your drug. If you remain seizure free then this medicine can be stopped gradually over 4-6 months.

There are lots of side effects for any medicine, but not all develop those side effects. So dont worry unless u develop a side effect, it s a very good drug
