In reply to 75mg of Lamictal last night..........., posted by Krissy P on March 18, 2003, at 11:33:31
> Hi all, Just wanted to continue my posts on the Lamictal. Now, I know last week I posted about increasing my dose of Lamictal to 75mg from 50mg, and not good results. But, last night, I increased it and wow! I feel great this morning? Do those of you on Lamictal remember how gradually you increased your dosages of Lamictal????
> I woke up less depressed, I slept well, and no nightmares. I feel less foggy. I hope my brain is finally accepting the Lamictal at 75mg.
> Any thoughts?

-----------------------------------Kristen,
Yeah but your Lamictal dosage was not the only change that you made yesterday. You also took your 2mg of Klonopin and 100mg Seroquel during the day instead of the usual bedtime dosing.
How do you know that the "less foggy" feeling you had earlier today was due to the increase in Lamictal or due to the other changes that you made? The point I'm trying to make is that when we change more than one medication at a time, it becomes VERY difficult to draw cause-and-effect conclusions.
What instructions did your pdoc give you regarding the Lamictal dosage?
