I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and i was wondering how long the medicine will take to take affect? |
I'm a 16 year old guy and i was just diagnosed with bipolar 2 disorder and my doctor just put me on trileptal two days ago and i take it once when in the morning and once in the evening. I asked my doctor this but i completely forgot what he told me. So does anyone know how long it will take for the affects of it to be felt? I think he said two weeks but i can't remember. anyway thanks:) It can take anywhere from 2-8 weeks, the latter being more likely than the former. That's if it works at all. This may not be what you want to hear, but treating bipolar disorder can be very complicated, and it can take months of trail and error to find the right med or combination of meds. It's frustrating, but worth it in the end. Be patient and keep an open line of communication with your doctor. My "dad" is bipolar, and that was one of the likely possibilities of why he acted strangely and the marriage between my mum and him ended, leaving me to think I may be diagnosed with it in the future, I'm 15, how did they diagnose you? If you could reply to squibHH@rocketmail.com? Thanks in advance if you manage too. You should be able to tell a little in a week & fully effect in 2 weeks. Good luck! |
