Just started Tegretol 100ml morning and 200ml night time, together with lyrica, neutontin and trepiline ,any ideas on what side effects I can expect?
WOW That is some cocktail you are on how much do you take of each one and how do you even function
All I can comment on is Lyrica - it was HORRIBLE! I gave up driving because of the way it made me feel. I am sorry I can not give you any information on the other meds. Good luck.
I am on 300mg Tegretol, 400mg neurontin,100mg Lyrica and 25mg trepiline. I can’t get out of bed and I have a rash all over my body and my fingers are swollen.
I think you need to see your doctor and/or get a second opinion on the medications you take you are definatly reacting to one of them . Did you have the rash before you started the tegretol I know some people get really bad reaction to it. your doctor could not have increased any of the anyother medication instead of adding tegretol. Are you seeing a neurologist? I am not a doctor or an expert but that is a lot of different medication usually people start out on one of those medication if one does not work they try another and go off the old one. I have seen on this site where some people take a combination of a few meds that just seems like a lot of different meds You may want to seek a second opinion it is alway good to make sure. God Bless you I will keep you in my prayers if it get too bad I would go to the hospital I do not know what the doctor and hospital situation are overthere but good Luck Daphne.

Thanks Kat, it was the neurologist who prescribed those meds. I called him yesterday and he I should stop the Tegretol immediately. I think I’ll take your advice and get a second opinion. Thanks for your concern…
I hope you get better soon maybe your doctors know something our american doctors don't know but that sure seemed like a bunch of different meds to take all at the same time good luck let me know what the second opinion says
