A member asked:
Does trileptal require tapering when taken for mood stability?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, taper trileptal: Risk of seizures it abruptly discontinued. Although, i don't think i've had anyone have a seizure who came off who didn't have a history of seizures. It's usually best to taper all psychiatric meds. Your brain doesn't like abrupt changes.
