What meds do you take for TN?
 

As I said in another post, I take Carbamazepine 200mg, 3 times a day and it usually works. But the last three days I have taken 4 of those and 600mg of Neurontin and the pain is "breaking through".

What do you use? Dosage, etc. I was told opiates won't help with TN. Any suggestions.

it has list of meds most of us have been or are using.
I wish I could help but none of the meds helped me and I have PNS that saved my life...
I hope others come by and reply as I seem to be of not much help with the meds. sorry.
Glad you found us and I wanna welcome you to a great place with some of the most awesome folks I have gotten to know.
