In dec 2003, I had a noctural epileptic siezure and had two more since. I was 62 years old then. To my knowledge I am not aware of any history of siezures or any major convultions before. I dont remember ever loosing concience before either.
Two years prior to my first seizure, I was diagnose for MCI (Mild Cognitive Impairement) and was prescribed ARICEPT.
Is it possible that Aricept be the cause of those seizures.
I am no longer taking aricept but I am taking anti-convulsion drugs (Trileptal) and according to my neurologist, I will be taking this drug for the rest of my life.
They have not found anything yet.
Can somebody help me clarify this problem.
