"i&#039;m going into my second month using trileptal and started at 600 mg a day.  my dr just upped it to 900mg because it wasn&#039;t stabilizing my moods as much as i would like.  i also take klonopin for anxiety and the trileptal for my bipolar.  so far, no side effects like the topamax with tingling but i&#039;m hoping it starts working better.  my dr wants to throw in an antidepressant along with something for adhd but wants to wait till this kicks in.
