Hi there,
Has anyone successfully switched from one anticonvulsant to another without a slow taper of one and gradual introduction of the other?
I'm thinking of switching from Lamictal to a (roughly)equivalent dose of Trileptal for a trial, and the info. I've turfed up suggests a straight switch is okay- less potential for unwanted med. interactions.
I'd like to hear from anyone who's done this in practice, preferrably someone who hasn't turned green and lost essential bodyparts in the process.Cheers,
Col.
