Is excessive thirst a side effect of Keppra medication for my cat?

Question

Would keppra low dose 0.2ml increase smudges thirst? It’s increased his appetite massively which in his case is excellent as it was given as an appetite stimulate as well as metacam 3.5ml dose in conjunction with his phenobarbitone twice daily .. amazing difference in just a few days .. many thanks in advance.

Yes, it is possible that the Keppra could be leading to increased thirst. I'm so happy it is helping him! Follow up with your vet if you have any concerns, otherwise follow the directions they gave you for treatment and hopefully it continues to work well for him.
