A member asked:

Why is trileptal making me so irritated? is this a side effect?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Trileptal effects: Why are you taking this medicine? Are you taking it for seizures or for other reasons? Sometimes medicines do not do what we want them to. Sometimes those effects are worse at the beginning. How long have you been using this medicine?
