It depends. When I got onto my final dose of trileptal (1200mgs/day), it took 2 weeks before I stopped feeling moronic. However...I still *sounded* stoned until I stopped taking it. Also, I had some degree of cognitive impairment the whole time I was on it that didn't go away until I'd been off of it for a month or so.

Have you considered Keppra or Lamictal? I think they don't make people as dumb. Also, topomax is kind of known for making people stupid...zyprexa isn't exactly a smart pill, either, so your combo is kind of dumbing you down.

Good luck.
