Valproic acid can cause mild side effects like anorexia and hair loss in some epileptic patients.
research Behavioral effects and somnolence due to levetiracetam versus oxcarbazepine — a retrospective comparison study of North Indian patients with refractory epilepsy
Levetiracetam often causes behavioral issues, while oxcarbazepine is more likely to cause sleepiness in epilepsy patients.

A newborn with congenital syphilis had unusual hair loss possibly caused by the infection.
research Hair Burning Syncope
Using hot curling irons and hair gels can cause seizures in young black girls during hair grooming.
research Anticonvulsant hypocalcaemia.
Long-term use of seizure medications can disrupt calcium metabolism, but this can be treated with vitamin D or UV light and does not affect seizure control.
research A comparison of the effects of lamotrigine and levetiracetamand lamotrigine and valproate sodium in patients with epilepsy
Levetiracetam and valproate sodium both reduce seizures when added to lamotrigine, but levetiracetam has fewer side effects.
