Hi Wren,

I took trileptal a few yrs. ago and I never heard a word from my Dr. or pharmacist that it would cause bone loss. I do know that trileptal can cause kidney stones so be sure to drink a lot of fluids each day. Also DO NOT eat grapefruit or drink grapefruit juice because the enzymes in the grapefruit will mess up the trileptal. If you burn when you're outside be sure to put on a sunblock because trileptal can cause a person to get a good sunburn in a very short time. You might want to call your pharmacist to get the facts about trileptal and bone loss to be sure. I wish you the best of luck and May God Bless You!
