For trigeminal neuralgia, tegrital (carbamazepine) is most effective drug. He is on very minimal dose, dose can be adjusted if required but some effects are possible like sedation, rashes and decreased sodium level. Most of the patients require long term treatment.

You need to be careful about the drug interactions. Tegretol (carbamazepine) can reduce levels of rozerem (ramelteon) whereas faverin (fluoxamine) can increase it. Faverin can increase levels of tegretol and that can be worrisome if not closely monitored. There are other solutions for your ocd.
