You should have no problems conceiving due to epilepsy, but some medications may make it more difficult.

Keppra specifically may be harmful to unborn babies, and can pass into breast milk. I’m hoping you told your neurologist that you started taking Clomid, and your OB you are taking Keppra? If you haven’t that would be a good idea, your neurologist might want to change your medication or adjust the dosage.

Remember:
When in doubt, ask your doctor!!
