Both drugs are very similar.
Its good in a sense, to start with Tegretol as its the stronger option of the two. If you respond well to it, then in all honesty theres no real need to try Trileptal, as it is suggested that it is a weaker medication when used for mood stabilisation.
However, if the side effects are too much with Tegretol, or you're running into problems with drugs interacting with it (many, many do) then it'll be a good idea to switch to Trileptal.
