Side Effects Posted: 07-04-05 13:26pm


I've been taking epilepsy medication for over 30 years, and my wife is wondering if epilepsy medication affects my sexual activity & impotence i'm on a combination of tegretol & vigabatrin. Also, i've read that vigabatrin affects your field of vision, but I have visual field tests done every 6-12 months and haven't seen any sign of it - even after taking it for 15 years.

I know that some meds do affect impotence and sex life... Look at www.Epilepsy.Com and go to treatment to see if your meds might. You can also ask your pharmacy.... Hope you find something that helps!
