Hi, We had the same problem with Keppra. My son has Myoclonic seazures and first
meds they pot him on was Keppra, he got worse, like you said his seazures
increased and they were deffinitly stronger, so we put him on Topomax wich made
him extremilly sleepy, he was sleeping 18 out of 24hrs:( Now he is on Depakote,
his seazures have decreased from 10 per day to 5, but they are still long and
strong. As far as I know any AED drugs can increase seazures and make them
worse which means that those meds do not work for your little one:)
Good luck!!
