Laxative tea: Not sure why you are taking Levetiracetam (anticonvulsant)? Senna tea is used as a laxative. Using laxatives isn't a healthy way to try to lose weight. To lose weight insure that calories burned exceed calories consumed. Drink at least 8 - 8 oz glasses of water /day. Try for 8 hrs of sleep/night. Aim for at least 5 servings of vegetables & 4 of fruit per day. Use whole grains. Avoid alcohol.
