A member asked:

Am bipolar 1 and having mixed episode, just put on abilify (aripiprazole) 30 mg and trileptal 450 mg am and pm, what is therapeutic dosage for trileptal?

2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

No defined dose.: Trileptal does not have a specific dosage for bipolar disorder. Trileptal can be used "off-label," which means it is not approved by the FDA for bipolar disorder, but some physicians believe that it helps.

Based on effect: Clinical effect that it. It is not based on a blood level. Please speak to your doctor accordingly about this medication management, and as always go slow to avoid side effects. Take care.
