This is for my mother, she had burr hole surgery for Sub.Dural Haematoma on April5 this year.She was given Anti . epileptic support like Eptoin & Levipil, as it was making her very tired, weak, appetite loss& severe skin break down her Dr.changed her epileptic medication Encroate Chrono 200(since 2months), her previous symptoms are much less but having severe back ache.Is it a side effect? Should she do liver function tests from time to time?
Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The back ache is not likely to be related to the medicines. It can be related to a muscle or disc problem. Getting the liver functions done every 2 months will help.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
