When I did, I was able to reduce the Parnate which is the good thing about Parnate is that it has a short half life so you can really play with the dosage depending on if you are cycling or not.

>Hi there,
Thanks for the reply.I use Trileptal as a mood stabilizer right now too.I like the stuff as I can still think clearly (900mg) and there are very few med. interactions.It didn't stop my wellbutrin induced mania however, but on reflection I think perhaps only a general anaesthetic would have managed that feat.
As we'll shortly be following the same med. regimen, I'd be interested to hear if you've had any side effects to either med.?
I got some nasty headaches on Trileptal for ages, but I'm glad I stuck it out.
Cheers,Col.
