In reply to Trileptal Vs Tegretol Experiences, posted by Nickengland on March 30, 2005, at 11:34:55
Hi. I did. I couldn't tolerate the Tegretol. I was very dizzy on it and nauseous. The dizziness was dangerous. I tried some other mood stabilisers then found out about Trileptal. I had no problems with it. Plus you don't have to have your levels tested and it's not contraindicated with as many meds as Tegretol.
I am glad I tried it. Staying on Tegretol was not an option.
