Last February I had several seizures. I never had seizures prior to this, and I had them 3 days after my Pdoc changed my Wellbutrin SR 400 mgs to Wellbutrin XL 450 mgs. My Doctors took me off of Wellbutrin XL (450 mgs), as well as my Trileptal & Xanax XR .5mgs.
My PDoc did warn me, to some affect, that since I have had seizures, pretty much all meds are somewhat risky in taking. .
We are all aware of the risk of seizure when taking Wellbutrin.
I read the prescribing info for Concerta and it says that Methylphenadate can lower your threshold for seizure tolerance.
I then read the prescribing information for Adderall and saw no mention to seizure.> OK..... My question is:
>
>>Do All Stimulants Lower Ones Threshold For Seizure Tolerance?
I now take Concerta 36mgs, Lexapro 20mgs,Gabatril 12 mgs and Klonopin & Xanax to take as needed for sleep or anxiety.
Best Wishes,
Cindy
