In reply to What med is closest to Lamictal? Can I mix Topomax, posted by Eggy on March 14, 2003, at 19:19:34
Hi EGGY, What dose of Lamictal were you on? I take it now after stopping it a year ago, and 2 weeks ago went back on it. How are you feeling (emotionally) off of Lamictal? I'm really picky about my appearance too and can't stand those side-effects. I was going to try Topomax (I have a little weight to lose) and weight loss is one of the good side effects of Toppomax-I had a friend who lost almost 100 Lbs on it.
I'm going to check something for you about taking the 2 together. Please get back to me:-)

==================================================================================================> I had to go back on the Lamictal! I saw the nurse at my Dr.'s office and she talked me into going back on it. I have to admit I did great on it(better than I have in 18 months) but it caused acne and weight gain. I quit it about a month and a half ago on my own. I don't really know what to do. I love how good I feel on it but Im really picky about my appearance and can't stand those side-effects. Do you know of another drug really similar to Lamictal? Can I take Topamax and Lamictal at the same time?? EGGY
