1
I control seizures in the brain. Take me with food twice a day or at bedtime to prevent GI pain. I may cause confusion, drowsiness, and slow the heart. Brush well for gum care and monitor labs like cbc and calcium to do your part. Who am I?
2
I prevent seizures and work best with food or milk. Avoid me if sodium is restricted. I may change mood, vision, or rhythm of the heart. Watch for dizziness and falling blood counts. Who am I?
3
I control seizures and don’t require food. Mood may shift to anxiety, aggression, or confusion.
Sleepiness and memory loss can appear. Watch high liver and kidney labs, and low blood counts while I’m here. Who am I?
4
I prevent seizures but must rise slowly over weeks. Extended-release lets food choice be free.
I may cause anxiety, mania, poor balance, or fever, And even worsen seizures or bring heart palpitations. Who am I?
5
I calm seizures without food required, But slow thoughts or moods may feel altered or tired.
Vision may change and tremors appear, Low bicarb and potassium are labs nurses fear. Who am I?

I calm seizures and nerve pain too, Immediate release without food, extended release with meals will do. Mood may shift, mouth grows dry, vision may blur, Watch WBCs drop and high sugar occur. Who am I?

I treat seizures and food isn’t required, But balance and coordination may feel impaired. Dizziness, tremor, or fainting may show, Watch Hgb and neutrophils drop low. Who am I?

Given subQ in the abdomen to prevent a clot, Bleeding and bruising can happen a lot. Black stools warn when danger is near, Protamine or vitamin K may appear. Who am I?

I break apart clots to restore brain flow, In strokes, I act quickly though risks may grow. Bleeding in the brain is danger to see, And clotting labs change because of me. Who am I?

I lower pressure flowing through veins, Protecting the heart, kidneys, and brain. Stand too fast and dizziness may appear, And potassium levels may rise while I’m here. Who am I?

“Ator” and “sim” drop LDL the most, But grapefruit juice is the thing these two fear most. Who am I?
