I wouldn't worry as much about it setting off mania if you are also taking a mood stabilizer -are you taking one? If not, I'd ask your pdoc about the chances of it triggering mania, he/she would hopefully be familiar with the studies/know the frequency with which it causes this.

I am taking Lamictal as a mood stabilizer. My mania or hypomania (not sure which category it falls under) has been occuring much more frequently since I started taking it, now that I notice. I am in between pdocs at the moment.
