Best bipolar meds?: There is no one best, or even one best class of medications to treat bipolar disorder. Various medications are used, including mood stabilizers, atypical anti-psychotics, AEDs, typical antipsychotics, and even (with caution) anti depressants. The best way to most effectively treat your bipolar disorder is to talk with your doc about the risks/benefits and SEs of any proposed treatment.
