[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 306063, member: 84"] I've considered using studies..........and never gotten any further in it than that. husband used to work for a drug company, so I understand how important these studies are........but uh, just never have found one that sat well with me. There are many seizure medications out there for husband to try if the trileptol isn't working well for him. Travis used Carbitrol for years with no sleepiness side effect and it did pretty darn well at controling his seizures. Of course he was on a pretty high dosage as well, especially for a child. If you don't feel the neuro is listening to you or meeting husband's needs, then maybe it's time for a new opinion. As I've understoon it from Travis' neuros and even my step dad when he was alive (he had epilepsy and narcolepsy), it's not uncommon to have to try and find a "fit" with the seizure medications.
