First thing I would do is download and read the
PDR (physicians desk reference). Go to google
or whatever is your favorite search engine and
find the home page for the manufacturer.
(Glaxo...) for Lamictal. You should be able to
navigate their website and download the PDR which
lists all the information the doctor needs like
dosing, side-effects, etc.If you want to find more detailed reasearch
information I find the most useful resource online is Medscape.
You can use the MEDLINE search database to
find abstracts of published reports. You
can purchase the entire report and they
will mail it to you, but it is expensive.
If you are really interested, copy down the
abstracts that look interesting and try to
find public access at a local university
that may have the journals on file.http://psychiatry.medscape.com/Home/Topics/psychiatry/directories/dir-PSY.JournalRoom.html
You have to register to use Medscape, but
it is free. In the upper left hand corner there
is a search Medscape box. Click on the MEDLINE
option. Then you can enter your search criteria.
very useful.I wish I could make this post Follow-up box
wider. I'm using Internet Explorer v5.50.
Anyone know how to do this? I'm too lazy to figure
it out.-john
