I have been taking Trileptal now for about three weeks, i agree with the drunken/dizzyness factor, i take it twice a day and i only seem to get that effect when at night, when i'm ready for bed, it's like the beds spinning-i'm sure y'all know that feeling :)but am taking other drugs also so don't know what may be counter acting what. but i'll tell you this combo works Wonders for me -FINALLY
Trileptal 300mg 2x
Wellbutrin XL 300mg
Seroquel 100 mg at night only
Strattera 60mg morning only
and xanax 3x dailyHTH
