> Has anyone tried zonegran for bipolar mania? I see it is used for bipolar depression. If you have used it for bipolar mania please let me know how it is working. My psychiatrist wants to know
> ThanksI tried it twice (about two weeks apart). I had a prounounced nasty temper flareup for two or three days that I couldn't attribute to anything else. I waited a couple of weeks and then tried it again and it happened again. Didn't stop any of my other meds. That's highly anecdotal--and there are an unusually large number of meds that can make me dysphoric--I get mixed-state-like reactions. It might work fine for you though.
