In reply to Zyprexa stability! Will Lamictal be of Benefit?, posted by katrina on March 12, 2001, at 11:19:13
Hi Katrina,
Adding Lamictal to Zoloft and Zyprexa may be helpful. I take risperidone (similar to Zyprexa), Zoloft, and Lamictal. Among these three, I started Lamictal first, and it greatly helped with mood swings and anxiety, and a little with general depression. So, if your mood swings could use more help, I think Lamictal would be worth a try.

> I am wondering if adding this to zoloft (50mg) and 2.5mg of zyprexa would be of any benefit. Deep depressions are more prevalent than the hypomania. Of course I would start low and go slow with the lamictal.
