I agree with you but if I can't even drive my car the time I tried 500 mg....how can I take 900 or 1200 mg???

first three days 100 mg second week 100+100 third week 100+100+100 fourth week 100+200+100 I'm on trobalt since august but dosage remained low because to tiredness.Supply wasn't a problem.

@locoyeti I think I'm going to taper off in the next future,last spike disappeared but the old tinnitus is always the same.

1st day:100 mg 2nd day 100 mg 3rd day 100 mg 4th day 100+ 100 until day 11 100 +100+100 from day 12 to day 19 100+200+100 from day 20 until today (another month)

The first time I took trobalt for only 5 days,I haven't any effect.Tinnitus increased 10 days after the discontinuation,I can't explain you why but I think it doesn't depend on trobalt.

Started at 100 mg/day for 3 days,then 100 mg every week until current dose.I want to reach 600 mg/day but it's difficult,500 mg made me like a zombie...I'm very thin, only 50 kg. My tinnitus is central with chronic migraine,it's quite young but very hard (10 spikes in 15 months)

Ok guys, I want to update about my retigabine story.As you know,I stopped the medication after a few days because I had vision problems with a low dose (200 mg). After 15 days being "meds free" my tinnitus and migraine worsened...I restarted desperately the therapy 45 days ago.Actually I'm on...

I'm very happy for you...no doubt,italians are the bravest :P

@Zimicheal actually I'm not on Retigabine but I want to restart therapy.I'm going to talk with my neurologist in a few days.

@rtwombly @locoyeti blurred vision disappeared the first day without trobalt

@rtwombly yes but in my case the side effect wasn't improving in 3-4 days,maybe it was worsening...maybe I will try again in the future if other drugs don't work.

Am I the only guy whose therapy was unsuccessful? Damned blurred vision...this is possibly a miracle drug and I can't take it...

@benryu 's excellent post encourages me to continue the treatment but I am worried.I know blurred vision is very different from retinal changes but 8 weeks seems a long time to see if it improves.My neurologist in on holidays so I can't call him...really I don't know what to do.Yesterday I took...

yes

My experience with trobalt is very short,i haven't had positive effects on my tinnitus in a week of treatment and I'm taking out because of very little sight problems.However,I recommend it: It's a very promising drug.
