Question about medication Wondering if anyone can help- I am currently taking Tegretol (Teril) My neurologist has prescribed Tegretol CR to possibly reduce the dizziness I am experiencing especially getting out of bed. Am I likely to have any problems changing to an controlled release version of the same medication? Thanks!     |

| I was switched from regular tegretol to tegretol CR as well. With less dips & peaks in your blood stream I think that you're likely to see less (or milder) side-effects than you did before

| Thanks - my other concern is if changing meds (even such a small change) will increase the likelihood of a seizure? |
