I'll start by saying that I obviously won't go off any meds without doctor consent. I'm also married to a pharmacist, but I just know he's getting so tired of me asking questions- so I turn to you!

I am just curious is most people with BPD take two medications? I am newly diagnosed and my doctor put me on Tegretol and Saphris. I'm curious if anyone knows of a reason for the combo? Is a combo normal?
