I still keep oxcarbazepine around as a fire extinguisher. When I find myself not sleeping as much, feeling very strongly about issues, talking a bit faster, getting agitated, getting racing thoughts and posting to Babble, it is time to put those warning flames out with the addition of Trileptal to my cocktail. It only involves taking a very small dose at night, along with my p.m. dose of 100 mg of Lamictal and .25 of Klonopin. Even samll doses make me drowsy during the day. I have been overly-sensitive to to drowsiness/fogginess on all ACs except Lamictal. So, after two years, Trileptal is a keeper in my medicine cabinet because it works.
I considered taking it last night. We will see how the rest of the day goes, and I'll possibly add some back in tonight.Here's to a 5 1/2 on a scale of one to ten,
