Side effects of medication
Thu, 05/09/2019 - 13:06Topic: Medication Issues
I take lamictal 400 mg, and keppra 1500 mg twice daily for my seizures and 1200 mg of Gabapentin for trigeminal neuralgia. My neurologist added 400 mg tegretol for my trigeminal neuralgia and the next day I couldn't walk without falling down and was having double vision. My dr abruptly took me off the tegretol and I am still unballenced and having bad thoughts. Am I having withdrawal symptoms?
