Hi tos8,

My Dr. had me increase my vimpat from 300 mg. to 400 mg. a day and when I did that it caused me to have more sz. so I went back to 300 mg. and was doing much better. If the sz. continue let your Dr. know about it and have the Dr. cut you back on the vimpat. Every now and then I also get a tingling in my hands and other parts of my body but then it goes away. If you are on any other sz. meds the vimpat may be interacting with the other meds you are taking. My advice to you is to speak with your pharmacist to get the details about the drug. I wish you the best of luck and I hope and pray that you don't have anymore sz. May God Bless You!
