So now I am at 25 mg of Lamictal. I am still suicidal and suffering from mixed states. I know that 25 mg of Lamictal isn't going to help. I have to up somewhere between 200-300 mg.
So for how long does the 25mg every two weeks rule last. Is this forever? Is there anything on the internet that would tell me how fast I can go?
I AM SO FRUSTRATED!!!! My GP isn't comfortable with psych meds and I am on a waiting list to see a PDOC which will take 6 - 9 months.
Does anyone have a copy of the PDR? Does it give a titration schedule in there? Because that is what she will go by. Sigh.
I was living in the States when the PDOC I was seeing started me on Lamictal. He also I would probably have to add Trileptal but wanted me to try the Lamictal first. There is no way my GP will prescribe me the Trileptal since I wasn't already on it when I saw her upon my return to Canada.
I can't handle this anymore!!!
So any info on tritration would be greatly appreciated.
