To assess the effectiveness of therapy, you should wait at least 2-3 weeks after determining the doses of drugs.
Seizures can result from constant changes in doses and medications.
Wait. In the meantime, it is worth considering consulting a psychologist, e.g. here:
What if I have lamotrigine despite the increased dose from 100 nan175 and no effects and recurrence of the disease?does it mean that this drug no longer works?
Tremors can result from constant changes in doses and medications?? If the EEG has improved significantly with Lavericetam, does it mean that the drug has started to work in some way?

The solution proposed by the doctor is absolutely justified. Constant changes in the dosage of drugs will not bring anything good. In order for the therapy to be effective, you should take the drug regularly, in the same dose – then after 2-3 weeks you will observe the full effect of the treatment.
If, as you mentioned, these are not typical epileptic seizures that can be life-threatening. It is all the more worth "getting tired" now, so that the effect of the therapy is visible in a relatively short time.
Perhaps it is worth considering psychotherapy at the same time. Very often, talking to a specialist can bring better results than taking medication alone.
The doctor tells me that you need to give lavericetam a chance and be on 1 dose and 1 drug, and not change the dosage once and again, then only one dose... He said that it is worth giving this fear a chance because it is good
These are other robberies. A different type. If the changes were constantly distwing, once a dose of lavericetam, once 500 times 250, all the time mixing, then the symptoms are tremors, because there is no stabilization. When there is no stabilization and constant mixing can the reasons for the effects of these changes still dosing???

Do you mean epileptic seizures in the form of short-term seizures? Are these other seizures, e.g. headache, palpitations or cough?
I mean, I formulated it wrong, it's about seizures, not typical seizures.

It is very difficult to assess, as epileptic seizures can pose a health risk. If seizures do occur despite taking medication, you may want to consider hospitalization and adjusting medication doses in a hospital setting. So that in the event of a seizure, you can immediately seek medical help.
What if I take 3 medications for epilepsy at the moment due to mixing doses of drugs, the disease has intensified and it is impossible to postpone any medication because there are seizures. Is it worth waiting for now to stabilize my health??

Usually, side effects disappear after 1-2 weeks after discontinuation of the drug.
I can feel bad despite the introduction of trileptal and the reduction of lavericetame, right?leksrz said. That lavericetam to be discontinued. How long do I have to wait?
Good morning. The doctor thinks to discontinue lavericetam and of course change to oxcarbazepine only that the lamileot decrease gradually. 1.5 years on lamotrigine does not have an adequate reaction, it can be completely discontinued,??

Stopping oxcarbazepine may have exacerbated seizures and aura symptoms, so it is important to make changes to treatment only under the close supervision of a doctor. It is worth waiting for stabilization after the drug is switched on again and only then consider reducing or changing other preparations as recommended by a specialist.
