Stresser,
It's not a case of whether a med is more effective than another. Everyone reacts differently to meds. Topomax made me psychotic and I had to hospitalised. For others, it works really well. But since your daughter wasn't doing well on the Topomax hopefully Trileptal will be the one. If not there are others out there.What is her diagnosis?
I know it's hard, but you have to be patient and see what happens. Although since I am not a mother, I can't imagine what you have been going through so I can empathize with your wanting to find out and do as much as possible for her. She is lucky to have you as a mom.
Hope you will keep us posted on her progress.
Hugs,
Maxime> Thank you everyone. I'm thinking we may not see much on 75mg just yet, but I think the doctor will increase the dosage at her next appt. Everyone seems to be at a much higher dosage. Do any of you know if this is much more effective than topamax? She was on that previously and really didn't get too much of the mood stabilization that she needed from it. I really want a happy daughter. Soon. Thank you everyone. -L
