What dose do you take?
i take 100mgs 1151515155
I take 100 mg with no side effects. Love Lamictal.
What exactly is lamictal? Antipsychotic? Antidepressant?
I take Lamictal. 300 mg once a day. I don’t know if it works for me.
Lamictal is an anticonvulsant. It is used as a mood stabilizer to treat bipolar and sza disorders.

I take lamotrigine (generic Lamictal) 100mg in the morning and 100mg at night. I didn’t get the rash from it. I’ve been taking it consistently for 3 years now.
I also took it as a teenager briefly when I was in a community based acute treatment program for a couple weeks but stopped because I couldn’t get a prescriber outpatient. It was the first med I started when I got back on meds at age 18.
I am supposed to take 100mgs bit quit when I noticed a flat effect. I will take it if I have bad swings starting.
@Snail and @anon4362788, what do you get for s/fx?

I could only tolerate doses under 50mg.
Anything above 25mg really would make me hypomanic and super anxious.

Does sfx mean side effects? I had some trouble with my coordination. Also anxiety but that might be a separate disorder and I take clonazepam as needed. Usually half a milligram in the morning and another half milligram if I need it later in the day.
Ty both!
Wave, did doses under 50mg help?
It only made me hypomanic but I guess in doing so it helped with my depression.
Which dose in particular of 25-50mg?
Was it a stand alone?
What about exec. function, memory, conc./focus, etc?
Actually I liked the lowest dose of lamictal - 12.5mg.
I felt happy and hypomanic all the time.
My focus was pretty good, so was exec. function etc…
I enjoy the lamictal, I’m on 100mg and it’s really helped with my depression, no more days of suicidal thoughts
I don’t remember other than flatness and not caring.
