507). The external carotid artery begins opposite the upper border of the thyroid cartilage, and, taking a slightly curved course, passes upward and forward, and then inclines backward to the space behind the neck of the mandible, where it divides into the superficial temporal and internal maxillary arteries.
Best Answer: The technical maximum dose of Keppra (levetiracetam) is 3,000 mg/day for any indication. Are you saying that since increasing to 4,000 mg that you are having MORE seizures? It almost sounds like you are saying you may have had some seizures but the Keppra has significantly reduced the symptoms.
It has also been a nightmare for me coming of keppra over the last 3-4 weeks. I am so sorry to hear that you are having trouble coming off keppra. I am still in the process of withdrawing keppra. At present I am down from 3000 mg a day to 1500 mg a day. hope you have/will. I am only half-way through withdrawing keppra now and tonight is my first withdrawal of the AED without introducing anymore topamax so I will just have to wait and see how things go now. I hope Depakote is still working well for you.
