Has anyone ever switched from Tegretol to Trileptal? I read they are similar but Trileptal doesn't have the sexual side effects Tegretol does.
 
No, but I'm in a similar position. I took Tegretol years ago and had to stop due to a rash. But now, as I am sick of Keppra, my doc offered Trileptal as an option which I thought strange since they are related and I had a rash from Tegretol.

Like you, I'm curious if anyone who was on Tegratol successfully switched to Trileptal and what their results were..
