Hey Amanda,
I'm not your daughters age but still young. I'm just 17 hours short of (choke) 52 years young! But I've been on Trileptal for 5 maybe 6 years? I switched from Tegretol to Trilptal. I didn't find any unusual feelings out of the ordinary. Its hard for me noticing differences me being on many different meds for epilepsy since 1975 (smile)! The only one I demanded off for me was neurontin (sp). But remember, we all are affected by different meds. and different dosages so differently. Even changes from within ourselves affect how a med and dosage affect ourselves over time. I made the change from Tegretol to Trilptal simply because Tegretol wouldn't stop my seizures and couldn't increase my dosage because it would make be toxic. So switched to Trileptal since its made by the same company with both having allot of the same ingredients. I increased the dosage to just under the most I could handle without seeing double ect... I went along with surgery after it didn't work and simply have stayed on my meds since surgery 3 years ago. Best of luck, keep us in touch with how Trilptal is working (smile). Take care, keep a smile on your face!

> Since my daughter was overdosed 2 weeks ago her neuro has put her on Trilepital. By the way the doc says that she was not overdosed one day, it was over a couple days! So now there will be no overnight visits ans supervised visits with her father. Ok, so back to Trilepital. She is on 3/4 tsp twice a day. The only thing I have noticed is she does not like to be touched anymore, but that might part of another medical condition. Any pros or cons for anyone on Trilepital would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!
