For more medically related / factual things about various disorders, it is best to stick with mainstream websites like WebMD.com. Here is a link to their information about medications for Bipolar. Obviously it isn't meant to fit every person, so YMMV....but it seems like a nice mix of general and specific information.

Bipolar Disorder: Medications

Btw...some of the categories for medication can be confusing, but they are (typically) grouped for the first use of the medication and/or what they do. For instance, 'anti-convulsant' meds are common for seizure disorders, but they can also can sometimes be used for mood management.
