Hi Chris,My doctor was pushing Trileptal, a newer
form of Tegetrol that is supposed be more
benign on the body. You may want to ask about
it.good luck,

> Anyone! My doctor has prescribed Tegretol as a replacement for Depakote (worked great, but had weight gain)....Based on the posts I've read on this board, I'm SCARED to death of this medication, I'm not starting it tonight because I don't want to die, and I don't want my brain to turn to mush (due to neurotoxcity), espicially since I'll be taking the Tegretol and Depakote together for a short period! Advise, info, anyone!! Should I start Tegretol!?
