The highest dose varies by person and treatment dx. 100-200mg is the general therapeutic dosing for BPD, but some go higher...obviously carefully because of the greater likelihood of side effects. Seizure disorders actually go much higher, but that is because of other meds that make the effective dose less....(usually). Pharmacology likes to be a PITA though, because other anti-epileptic can actually double the effective dose, so the dosing goes the other way.
