No, I was on its anticonvulsant rival Carbamazepine (Tegretol) for 24 years, and it didn't work for me.

Aptiom works great! It stops my daily flurries. I only take half a dose 5 mg. Daily. I take Xcopri at 300 mg. I have used Onfi a while back but I couldn’t deal with it. That happened w/ other meds (Topiramate) ex. It was combinations . Topiramate w., the med. it worked great the last time. I wish you the best !

I took it for a couple of weeks but had to come off it as i wasn't tolerating it well. Worst side effect was hallucinating! It also seemed to make my seizure worse.
