Thanks, I had read these before I ordered it. My Psyc doc said that because it is bound to orotate and more easily absorbed you can take less and not have the kidney damage. It is not controled by the fda...he told me to look for some between 4-6 units, after reading reviews I chose one by advanced research with Dr Napiers name on it.It has 4.9, so if it does vary a bit I am still in the ok range. I do believe it is making me sleepy though. I have ok Insurance, my drug of choice from internet searching is lanotrigine. @nd choices zydis or oxcabazepine....I will not take one that has weight gain as a side effect. I had gastric bypass surgery 3 years ago and I will not go there again.
Thank everyone for the input, My dr did say we may have to add an antidepressant when I see him on the 30th. My biggest concern right now.....being sleepy, I want to try to go back to work next Monday.
