      Hey, sorry. Well, keppra has worked for some people and not others. Honestly, it's up to you if you want to take it. Read the side-effects and make sure you're ok with them.

      "Small update; the doctor who prescribed the Keppra on me in december of past year, it being administered to patients who had previously received some relief from the combination of gabapentin + clonazepam. The results seem to be encouraging, especially in the group of patients who suffer from tinnitus unilateral not tonal but white noise, narrowband noise linked with Misophonia or hyperacusis. After 3 months of testing, the maximum dosage of 2000mg per day were obtained the following results: 1) Reduction of tinnitus NOT TONAL from 6 to 3. Disappearance of "tinnitus reactivity". Disappearance of Misophonia (FULL). Drastic reduction of the headaches associated with iperacusia.The patients have improvement in mood and in their ability to react to their situation of suffering. 2 persons have abandoned the use of SSRIs and are climbing out the use of benzodiazepines. 2) If the tinnitus is tonal, no relevant difference. (not lucky people) 3) If there are hyperacusis or Misophonia, after a month of treatment, the symptoms begin to weigh less on quality of life. 4) In patients who did not obtain benefits, was prescribed the Flexiban (Flexeril ... always cyclobenzaprine), with good results on tinnitus tonal, general tension, hyperacusis and headaches. It is noted that these patients have problems related to the neck or jaw or to the structure of the dental arches. Very common side effects that lead patients to abandon the following therapy are excessive sedation or tachycardia. Flexiban has a structure similar to Tegretol. Both are "cousins" of tricyclic antidepressants such as amitriptyline or nortriptyline that already in the past have been shown to have some efficacy in the tensive states, headaches or migraine, hyperacusis, generalized anxiety. It is hoped that these results are permanent, in view of a future development of Biviracetam (enhanced version of Levetiracetam x10) who @Danny Boy is most active in the research, the suffers may have some help with a drug already tested and without serious side effects, avalaibilty and low price"

      Well, he's never mentioned it coming back. But honestly, I would say a trobalt+keppra combo would resolve it. So if keppra on its on doesn't work, then I suggest using them both. I'm only saying this as a suggestion. In the end, it's your choice.

      Translation into english: @Danny Boy another thing - are you continuing to take Keppra. If your H has disappeared do you still have a need to continue to take Keppra?
      Hope the translation helps?

      Well, they have filed for a licence in the EU and the US, in January 2015. So really, I have no clue? They will announce it, when they can release it.

      I have done research and I have seen that
      Barivacetam can be effective , it is 10x more powerful modulator acts on the KV7 as Trobalt but with side effects less serious and more effective

      this is strongly its output can be anti epileptic will be most efficient for our T and H

      If it's like keppra and that's a if, then it would be a KV3.1 not a KV7 inhibiter, they are completely different.
