Hi Anon,

Thank you for sharing your question with the EmpowHER community.

Here is a short list of the medicines.  You can find additional information here at Medication for Bipolar Disorder.

  • Lithium Anticonvulsants
  • Valproate (Depakote) 
  • Carbamazepine (Tegretol) 
  • Lamotrigine (Lamictal) 
  • Gabapentin (Neurontin)
