How Long Should Levipil Tablets Be Continued Post Brain Stroke?

My mother got a brain stroke on 26/3/16. She was admitted to the hospital. At the time of discharge from the hospital, the doctor suggested her to take Levipil 500 tablets twice daily for next three months. She took the medicine strictly according to doctors advice. My question-How long should she take Levipil 500 tablets?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

If there was a seizure episode, then levipil should be taken for longer periods say 2 years or more. If no seizure, then treating doctor can decide the duration depending upon the well being and recovery of patient.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Loveleen Sharma, General & Family Physician
