I checked out Lamictal prices at http://www.walgreens.com and did some math. At least for the meds I'm on, there isn't much difference in price between the lower and higher dosages of drugs. Approximately, each 25 mg tab of Lamictal is $2.28, each 100 mg tab is $2.30, and each 200 mg tab is $2.53. The tablets are scored. If you want to maximize your savings, buy 30 of the 200 mg tabs for $76 and cut them in half. The following has been very helpful to me:
