When you sit down to eat a meal take your pill I had to do it with depakote it was making me vomit and diarrhea for 3 days I was so sick you have to fix it to make your body do better. The doctors don’t take these pills they don’t know how sick we feel

I hope you are all ok. And that this goes away, waking up with a sore stomach would not be nice. Let me know how you are feeling.

Only when they changed the way they made carbamazepine(tegretol) did i have an issue. They changed the chemical composition in the coating which i was actually allergic to the new formula. Not enough where i would actually vomit but enough to where i would stop eating. Generics only have to be 65%(maybe 70) effective so the tend to make them cheaper as well.

Like everyone else stated however try them with food and if it persists i would talk to the pharmacists and doctor.
