Scott,
Do you know whether this risk exists for people who are not taking it as an anticonvulsant in the first place? Its something I've wondered about since I first saw that caution on the label. I know the studies those warnings were based on were done on people with epilepsy but I wonder if there's some sort of "rebound" effect on the rest of us.
