Hi. I just read this thread with interest. I'm wondering if anyone had the same experience I did on Zonegran. At 25 and 50 mg it didn't seem to do much.
Then we tried it again at 100 mg. After about 3 days on it, I waas sleeping only about 2 hours at night and was so depressed and worn that my pdoc wanted to put me in the hospital. I said no. I said that my gut instinct made me feel that I was having a bad reaction to Zonegran and we stopped it after only 5 days.
During the 2 weeks after that I had about 3 more really bad trips into the emotional abyss. So now I am second guessing myself and wondering if it was the zonegran that made me feel so awful or if it was a coincidence and maybe I should have stuck with it longer.
Is this stuff supposed to have any antidepressant qualities? Has anyone else felt they might have gotten worse on it? I'm curious.
BTW, we tried it on the recommendation of a good pdoc in NYC after I went for a second opinion.
