From what I've just read, there may be evidence that Trileptal is more effective than Depakote for treating different kinds of withdrawal. Depakote does not appear to be as potent to prevent alcohol withdrawal as was once thought. Alcohol, BZD, and SRI withdrawals probably all include glutamate hyperexcitability. Perhaps this commonality indicates that the same AEDs will mitigate the withdrawal symptoms of these three classes of drugs. It would be convenient.
