Hello all.

I was just wondering what kind of medications people have had successes and failures with. I was taking Lamictal and it was working quite nicely, but I wanted to get some of this weight off of from the zoloft so I went back to Topamax. ( Topamax 200 mg, Zoloft 150mg and Synthroid .175) I was on it before and dropped like 25 pounds but it gave me Kidney stones so I stoppped. This time I will remember the WATER! What meds does anyone else take? Bipolar I/ PTSD/


THANKS!

Hi-

I currently take Lithium 900 mg, Lamictal 150 mg, Seroquel 50 mg, Abilify 5 mg, and levoxyl(synthroid?). I am "in transition" right now-doc wants to d/c Lithium possibly and increase Lamictal to a maintenance dose. Can anyone tell me what a maintenance dose is? 200,250,300 mg?

Hi,
I take seroquel, lithium, clonozapam and temazapam. I feel ok, but I do think I could be better. My anxiety level can be too high. I can get restless.
