Not everyone goes through Keppra rage, but I unfortunately did. A big factor may have been my dosage, 1000mg/day. (I almost got arrested in public). Before Keppra (Levetiracetam), I was on 450mg/day of Lamictal (Lamotrigine). I felt good but had a break through seizure. That’s when he put me on 1000mg/day of Levetiracetam. Because of the rage, my Dr. switched me to another med and I couldn’t function at work, felt dumb. So now I take a combo of Lamotrigine, 450mg/day, and upped the dose to 1500mg/day of levetiracetam after another problem. I still don’t have the rage anymore even though he increased the dosage of levetiracetam. I would have preferred increasing the lamotrigine, but I’m maxed out on the dosage.
It will take more than 4 days to see if the Keppra is effective to control your seizures. Hope it works out.
