Carbamazepine
trigeminal neuralgia
"Reading all your testimonies gives me hope. All though a few of you have had a bad experience or no relief at all. Majority seems in favor. I was recently diagnosed with TN. Never heard of it, also never felt pain like this in my life. Wakes me up, only eat when I'n starving, haven't been to the gym in 3 weeks. I've only been on it for 3 days and so far no change. I guess it takes sometime to get into your system. 100 Mg 2 times a day. Not tired or dopey at all. Seems like the people with the higher Mg have those symptoms. Well wish me luck. One thing I just recently discovered, if i'm looking down I start to get that twitch in my lip. Then I lean my head way back as I was lookin in the sky it seems to calm down."
