Mood Stabilizers?

Posted by TrishP on March 18, 2005, at 17:43:04

I've tried 600mg of Trileptal, which messed up my periods. I could drop down to 450mg. a day without it effecting my hormones. Then my Pdoc suggested taking 160mg/day of Geodon. All I could handle was 80mg - which she wanted me to take at night. Would it be better to take 40mg/day and 40mg/night?

I am currently taking Wellbutrin XL and love it but I can't sleep at night so I take Trazodone.

My question is - which mood stabilizer should I take - Geodon or Trileptal? I'm afraid of having a seizure with the Geodon/Wellbutrin combo, but my Pdoc says if I've never had one don't worry about it. Am I being silly to worry?

Also - I'm afraid to have a margarita with the Wellbutrin/Geodon - afraid of seizure!

Help. Any suggestions/advice?
