> I think anticonvulsants as a class do this. When I started Keppra this happened, I dropped in dose for a while then increased with no problem. Same thing happened with Topamax which I discontinued because of in addition it gave me a upper respiratory infection. Now I'm on a small doseof Keppra and a small does of Lamictal (100mg) and am doing fine.

So does the "feeling better" effects stop going away after you reach a certain dose?Otherwise, what's the point? I'm at 250 mgs and climbing.
