Tera,

-:¦:-•:*'""*:•.-:¦:-•*Welcome to MyMigraineConnection!*•-:¦:-•:*'""*:•.-:¦:-

It is possible that Keppra is causing the changes in your moods. All the medications in this class carry a black box warning about this. This is a good reason to call your doctor.

Good luck,

Teri

My Doctor also started me on keppra a couple of months ago and I also had severe mood swings, one minute I was fine and the next minute crying. I would get so angry over little simple things that never upset me before. I told my Dr. so he took me off of them. They offered no relief anyway.
