sirwriter Posted June 23, 2005 Share Posted June 23, 2005 I am in the midst of titrating up Tegretol to a target of 600mg, 200mg 3xdaily. My initial reactions are a feeling of being so far "out of it" that my feet drag when I want to walk, and I sort of shuffle along. I'm have nausea and my head sort of spins. It's a weird feeling. This morning I read of Equetro just being approved to treat Bipolar disorders. It is apparently an extended release type, and I just wondered if anyone who has had bad tolerance experiences on Tegretol has tried it? (I'm bipolar1 with rapid cycling and a bunch of anxiety disorders and panic attacks). I'm not sure I can hang in long enough with the effects from the Tegretol to see if it works or not.
