I recently started taking Briviact (Brivaracetam) 25mg tablets to help manage my partial-onset seizures. My neurologist prescribed it, and I'm hoping it will help control my seizures better. I've read that it works by affecting certain proteins in the brain to calm overactive signals. I'm curious to hear from others who have taken this medication. What side effects have you experienced? I've read about potential side effects like dizziness, drowsiness, and fatigue, but I'm not sure what to expect. Have any of you dealt with more severe side effects, like hallucinations or suicidal thoughts? It's important to note that these are rare, according to the info from my neurologist, but I'm still a bit concerned.

I was recently prescribed Briviact 50mg/5ml Inj, 5ml for my epilepsy and I'm wondering if anyone else has experience with this medication? Specifically, I'm curious about the side effects and how they compare to other anti-epileptic drugs. The injection form seems a bit intimidating, but I understand it's necessary in certain situations. I've read about some serious side effects like allergic reactions, hallucinations, and suicidal thoughts. Has anyone experienced these? How were they managed? I'm also interested in hearing about any lesser-known side effects that I might encounter. Additionally, I'm concerned about the possibility of seizures in the case of a missed dose.
