Hi,
I'm 27 yrs old and I've been taking levipil 1000mg and Oxetol 300mg both twice daily since July 2012 as i was diagnosed with neurocysticercosis. I just had one seizure in july 2012 and immediately the root cause was diagnosed. Since then I've been on medication. I wonder till how long do i need to continue these medicines. I've never missed any dose and take my medicines on time. Also, the medicines do not have any side effects on me. Just that taking medicine daily does not make me feel good :) and I hope one day doctor ask me to stop the medication. Is it that i can stop these medicines all of a sudden or will the dosage be decreased gradually before stopping it. I've attached the last MRI scan which was done in May 2013. Is another MRI or CT scan required to be done in future to monitor the progress? If yes, when should i get it done? Also, my case was going on in India and now i've moved to US. As per my last conversation with my doctor in India he suggested me to continue the medicine for another year. However, he was of the opinion that dosage can be reduced but he just wanted to be extra cautious as he was aware of my plan to move to US. Do you feel that I really need to continue the same dosage for another year or should i get another scan done and mark the progress?
