Lamictal causing hyper-anxious irritability ?

Posted by Basia on December 22, 2003, at 9:42:40

Hi,
I have recently upped my dose of Lamictal to 50 mg for the next two weeks and am suffering immense irritability, anxiety and panic, increased heart-rate, grinding teeth and an unbearable 'knotted' stomach. Has anyone else had this and does it fade? It seems to get like this about two hours after taking the pills and then after four hours I calm down. VEry exhausting!
But better than anguish and paralysis of depression strangely enough...
Am taking Sulpiride and Tegretol REtard for Bipolar with psychotic elements and HPPD.
Thanks so much for any advice/help!
