Alternative To Epitec (Top voted first)

I have bipolar 1 and was prescribed 300mg epitec per day 4years ago. 2 years ago I had a stroke at age 29, this was put down to an overdose of epitec. I have cut the epitec down to 100mg and take this every other day. I struggle with constant headaches and when I take a few ays off end up with the high/low mood swings. Im wanting to have a baby but have been told I cant if im on epitec. Is there a natural alternative I can take?

Hello, Danelle! How are you doing? I'm very sorry about the problems that you've had.

With your rather complicated medical history, you really need to check with your doctor, before trying to get pregnant and making any changes. They'll be able to help you find a safe medication for you to take and advise you on maintaining your health, while pregnant.

Is there anything else I can help with?
