For Epilepsy "Taking Trileptal for 5 months. Female. 450 mg twice a day. No seizures, but memory is now horrendous, and I'm so dumb and numb. Also, the 5-7% chance of having a deformed baby is not worth it, but I'm stuck because all the seizure meds are horrid. Also, now experiencing constipation."

For Anxiety "Completely messed up my stomach - constipated, nauseated, vomiting, rectal bleeding. Agitation, sleep problems, and muscle discomfort (restless leg syndrome) upon discontinuation of medication. I also believe the increased agitation and abdominal discomfort led to an increase in my blood pressure."

For Bipolar Disorder "This medication was extremely effective at stabilizing my moods. The problems that I had made it so that I could not continue on it and therefore needed to rate it so low (because of the severe side effects). First off, I literally saw double for several hours after taking it. Do you remember the Wrigley's Double Mint gum commercials? Well, literally that's what I experienced. It DID go away after several hours afterward, but was really weird and gave me a headache when it happened every morning. My skin, especially my lips, would get numb and tingly. The biggest problem, though, was that it gave me constipation so bad that nothing I ate or took could alleviate it. The ONLY way I could EVER go is if I took a heavy (not mild) laxative."
