RE: Epilepsy drug could reduce sleep apnoea symptoms?
Thank you for sharing! For someone who's taking an epilepsy drug (though not for that diagnosis and it is a different drug) this is an interesting article to discuss with the doctors. But I can predict the response that it is still preliminary. 

It would be nice to read the paper, but another article discusses it here. One key point they discussed was that the reduction was not within moderate ranges even with the highest dose of the drug.

Unfortunately, it's not approved for use in the US.
