Paired with the Effexor as a preventative team.

Helped me to be seizure free for 10 months, then seemed to stop working.

It worked OK, but eventually gave up on it because it caused me to lose weight (I don't have any to lose). I went from 120 pounds to 105 within a year, without changing my eating or exercise habits. I still can't gain the weight back, even though I'm off it. But it also messed up my urinary system a bit, so I switched to trileptal.
