which mood stabilizers do what?

Posted by tendency on May 25, 2005, at 18:40:12

im looking for a synopsis on the generally recognized symptoms / brain areas that various mood stabilizers target. for instance:
currently i'm on 75mg topamax and have found it quite effective for:
- controlling temproal lobe issues
- preventing dyshphoric mania
lamictal:
- seems to be generally accepted as being good for rapid cycling and depression
- not so good for controlling mania
how about:
depakote?
tegretol?
trileptal?
lithium?
others?
