I've been taking dilantin for the past five months at 500mg/day and over the
past two was getting seizures minutes after going to bed or waking up as
well as during any form of extended aerobic exercise.  A week ago I started
taking 1000mg of Keppra on top of the dilantin and haven't had one seizure
since even after moderate aerobic exercise.  Anyone else had success with
this drug and know whether you build a tolerance to it over time?

been on tegretol/keppra (800mg/1000mg) since June.  completely
seizure-free.  Had some side effects during the first month or so, but no
problems since.
