Yeah, my cat gets pretty doped up (she's tiny). She hates getting the nasty red liquid, but if I don't give it to her, eventually she'll come crying...my little kitty is a fiend for sure! I'd love to give her Keppra, but it's just too darn expensive. Thanks. Yeah, my cat gets pretty doped up (she’s tiny).

Current human seizure meds are a lot gentler on the psyche. I now take Lamictal and Keppra. When I took phenobarb I was numbed. I called it "living in a baggie" with a thin plastic film between me and the world. My dog doesn't seem dulled by it. It's hell to withdraw from. I got off too fast and started craving it - had to taper off slower. Nice tat. I took phenobarb in the late 70’s for my epilepsy and now give it to my epileptic Husky daily.

It’s hell to withdraw from. I got off too fast and started craving it – had to taper off slower.

Nice tat.
