>Here is a link from drugs.com showing the interactions between Trileptal and Effexor.
Unfortunately, this interaction checker is not accurate. There are no reports in the medical literature of venlafaxine + oxcarbazepine causing respiratory depression. These particular meds are not respiratory depressants, either alone or together.
Beware of using the drugs.com interaction checker. Instead, use a reliable source such as the textbook 'Stockley's Drug Interactions', which is written by experts and uses a huge range of case reports and studies from the published medical literature.
