Its used as a mood stabilizer in bipolar. I think its better for mania, agitation, rage, and aggression than the depressive end of things. Blood work is necessary. I think it has a number of drug-drug interactions you might want to check out.
Did he mention trileptal? Its like tegretol, only somewhat cleaner. No blood work. I don't know anything about the drug-drug interactions.
