A member asked:
For past 16 years my dilantin levels have been 2.3 but have been seziure free as far as i know unless in sleep i have them should i switch meds?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: If you are seizure free, there is no need to change meds. The only time you should change meds is at the discretion of your physician. Usually this is if the medication you are on is not working to control your symptoms which in your case is not true. Continue to follow your physician recommendation.
