Dr, my relative, over weight, is diagnosed with bipolar spectrum. She gets severe depression and irritated mud. She has recovered fully with VALADOXIN 2 at night (Antidepressant) with TRILEPTAL (mod stabiliser). When Dr withdrawn TRILEPTAL depression came back full blast in 2 months time. Later only with TRILEPTAL she became ok, but depression came back in 2 months. Now she is back with both and she is feeling better (sleep ok, no panic attack, not irritable, appétit is ok, but drive to do things still improving).Is the medications she is taking now will get her full relief.?

Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hello,

There is no harm if he responded with combination of oxcarbamzepine and agomelatine. As you know both the medications are used for treatment of bipolar disorder and this has been proved well in case of your relative.

There is good chance that he will be under remission with both the medications.




Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ashok Kumar,
Psychiatrist
