      Hi Rubber Duck! What an amazing user name!! Epilepsy tablets have to get into the brain so most have the risk of making us sleepy. It probably best to go and speak to your GP about this but in the meantime, when you wake in the morning, you could try getting daylight as quickly as possible. So go eat your breakfast near a window or have a walk around the garden. This can help break down any extra sleep hormone thats floating around in your body making you sleepy.
