Ok- first of all this is a bad place to ask that question- however, I work with pharmaceuticals and also take similar meds. There is no interaction reported between carbamazepine aka tegretol and vyvanse. However, Clonazepam increases blood plasma levels of carbamazepine. I would ask your doctor why you need both of those at once.

They have both worked for me. I have been on carbamazepine (Tegretol) for 14 years. Two years ago I had a new type of seizure I hadn't experienced before. My Neurologist put me on levetiracetam (Keppra) and also kept me on the Tegretol and wow what a difference.

Simply, NO I do not believe so.

If you want brief explanation you can read below:

1.Mechanism of action: Both benzodizepine and carbamazepine work in the neurons and can be used for the treatment of epilepsy, keeping in mind that there are different types of epilepsy. However, Carbamazepine is a drug that decrease neuron firing through inhibition of sodium channel were as benzo's acting through increasing GABA ,which is inhibitory neurotransmitter.

2- Medical uses:

Benzodiazepine: Anxiety, spasticity, status epilepticus, detoxification (mainly from alcohol), night terrors, sleep walking, in general anesthesia and more.

Carbamazepine: Trigeminal neuralgia, epilepsy.

in addition they do have different side effects and precautions you can read about more in the FDA if you would like so.

hope I was able to help :)
