That's probably not helpful since they're two different drugs but take it for what it's worth.
Best of luck.

Very helpful information. Trileptol IS a milder form of Tegretol, the one thing better about Trileptol is it doesn't produce as many toxic hepatitic enzymes and doesn't require blood testing, neither does it wipe out red or white blood cells like Tegretol. I nearly smacked myself with a hammer on Seroquel to make it stop. Lamictal worked for a short time for me. Everyone's chems are different.
