Hello.
Hope u are all great and happy.
I’ve started taking lamotrogine again and have developed a rash on both arms from it.
I didn’t get this rash last time I took it.
Why would I get it this time around ?
Any of u had this problem before.?

This sounds like an allergic reaction. Call your doctor right away!
Yeah speak to a doc man pronto
Yeah man, this sounds very potentially serious. Call immediately!
Only a doctor can properly diagnose a Lamictal rash and decide whether it is serious. However, knowing the symptoms of this rash can be helpful for determining if a rash may be due to Lamictal and whether it is bad enough to be an emergency.
Signs and symptoms of the rash typically include:
- red blisters in one or more areas, often the face or mouth
- itching skin
- hives
- general feeling of being unwell
- fever
Indications of a more serious rash include:
- peeling skin
- very painful blisters
- redness, swelling, and inflammation in or around the eyes
- body aches
- a cough
- flu-like symptoms
- swollen lymph nodes
Your allergies can change with time that’s why you probably didn’t get it last time.
I even had a serious allergic reaction to either, a medicine the 5th time I took it. Or it was my sisters pie the 20th time I ate it in my life. Past thanksgiving. I’m still not sure if it was from the pie or the medicine but i had no bad reaction the first times taking something, but then had a bad one later on. So yeah it’s definitely possible
Thanks folks,
I did speak to her and she said its probably just bruising, but i must stop the lamotragine just to be safe.
Thanks
Good luck! Did she say what new med she’s going to put you on?
No, but im going to see her on soon, so we will chat then.
Thanks again
Lamictal destroyed my life. period
