> Hi guys,
> Thanx for the posts... I've tried oxcarbazepine, its ok but gives me headache and makes me feel stupid... Valproate (divalproeix acid) is an option too at a low dose that id like to try.. but now im thinking verapamil! anyone tried this??
> I recently read about its success in treating bipolar pregnant women... past evidence seems to be good and bad...
> bpsI've tried it. It *does* seem to help with temper spells. However, it made me dizzy and
exaggerated the tremor I get from Depakote
in my left hand. A long-time poster here has
had very good success with it combined with
Depakote. Look for posts by SusanC
