    A very good question.

    I have also seen that with double doing on bad days.

    A good day for me is 3 doses of 100mg

    a bad day I double yo 600mg

    if I go higher than 600 mg per I suffer vertigo which is no fun at all.

    must be a delay to the meds.

    i now take fast absorbing tegratol

    taste is terrible but better help than the pink coated version.

    Bo LUCK
