My son's pdoc prescribed tegretol to take the place of depakote. Some of you have told me that trileptal is a better version of tegretol. On the Novartis website, they say not to take tegretol if you have a sensitivity to TCA's and then in the trileptal description they go on to say that many of the side effects of tegretol are the same in trileptal except of course the aplastic anemia and white blood count problem. So, to make a short story long, can you take trileptal if you have a sensitivity to TCA's? Am I reading that right?
Love,
Karen
