trggirl Posted February 13, 2011 Report Posted February 13, 2011 Does anyone have any experience with Trileptal? I welcome the good and the bad. The doctor wants to try this to help with my daughter's hyperness and mind racing.

peglem Posted February 14, 2011 Report Posted February 14, 2011 We tried it years ago, before we knew about PANDAS. Allie got much worse on it, but that may have been a PANDAS flare confusing things.
abeckett93402 Posted February 14, 2011 Report Posted February 14, 2011 My son tried trileptal but only seemed to make his tics and ocds worse. It helped with the body tremors but I felt that the tenex worked just as well for the other symptoms. We also started giving him high dose micronutrients iv...makes a world of difference with high dose magnesium too. Good luck.
trggirl Posted February 14, 2011 Author Report Posted February 14, 2011 Thanks for the input. I really appreciate it! I have a hard decision to make.
