manic-depression--meds?

Posted by katie on July 5, 1999, at 15:04:57

If anyone out there could give me the names of alternative drugs (other than lithium and anti-convulsants) used to treat manic-depression I'd be really grateful. I just can't deal with the side effects of topamax and lithium. I've gotten off of the topamax and am back on full dose of lithium, but have been suffering w/ diarreah. I really don't know what my doc will do with me because I plan on complaining to him about this...I really, really DON'T want to try another anti-convulsant. The topamax made me very irritable and I suffered from numbness in my feet and hands. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks, Katie
