I've taken 300mg Trileptal 4 times per day (2 tablets each morning and 2 each evening) for a long time.
After surgery in '06 it was the first medication the epi slowly removed but after 9 months I started having seizures again so they were added back. I also take Topamax.
I had more surgery (knock wood) May 18 so maybe I'll be able to reduce medication again sometime. I do OK on Trileptal and have no major complaints about it.
