I've had seizures for the past 10 years and my doctor now has me on 3500mg of Depakote and 200 mg of Dilantin a day. I know the dosage amount is based on your weight but I only weigh about 140 pounds and my seizures only occur maybe once a month or so. Now that I'm on this high dosage of meds, I average maybe 3 hours of sleep a night, my hands shake uncontrollably, memory loss, hair loss, and nausea. I have taken all the other seizure meds and nothing else seems to work. Has anyone ever had this high of a dosage or any information that could be helpful to me. I would really appreciate it.
