How To Control Limotrigine Mediated Excessive Fatigue?

I've been on limotrigine for a month now. Started at 5mg for a month and now 10 mg. I find it is making me too tired to function and want to stop taking it. Can I just stop at a such a low dosage or should I go back to 5mg and take every other day?

Hi, I had gone through your query and understand your concerns.

Don't stop abruptly. Go back to 5mg and the alternate day and then stop.

Hope this helps. Thank you
