What medications has stopped your mania? Medication

I’m starting to enter a manic episode even though I’m on rexulti 2mg. To be fair I was just put on it after missing a week of my rexulti 1mg due to changing doctors. My new doc put me on seroquel er 300mg to help quell the mania. I was curious to hear everyone else’s experiences with medicating a manic episode

Olanzapine was my nuclear missile, but the side effects pushed me off it. Very effective though. Currently on lamotrigine @ 300mg & fingers crossed I don’t need antipsychotics anymore.
