A member asked:

What is a good low side effect med for trilegimal neruigia .. i'm on trileptal now but it's delepingy sodium..

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Lots of choices.: Medications might include Carbamazepine (like trileptal), neuron tin, lyrica, (pregabalin) baclofen, cymbalta, but also maybe, lamotrigine, tricyclic antidepressants. Better yet might be a needle directed balloon decompression of the exit foramen in the skull. Your neurologist can assist in redirecting your therapy.
