Talk to psych: Tell this exact thing to the doctor who is prescribing these meds to you, he/she will help you with an adjustment of your meds as there are many to choose from or titrate on your dosages.

Bipolar maintenance: General info like the following does not take into account an individual's bipolar/health history & is in the absence of an ongoing therapeutic relationship, & so cannot take the place of advice from the prescribing physician. General info: Common treatments for maintenance of controlled bipolar disorder include Depakote, lithium, quetiapine, lamotrigine, or whatever controlled an acute episode.
