In reply to lithium and lamictal together?, posted by CareBear04 on April 15, 2004, at 7:37:21
Lithium works in many mysterious ways. Lamictal works on Na and Ca channels primarily. It does other things too that we obviously haven't pinpointed yet. I take both and lithium keeps me level (not depressed/not anxious), it's sedating so I take it all at night. Lamictal is very activating so I take all of it in the morning. I have to increase the dose very slowly otherwise I get uncomfortably hypomanic. I think it's a good combo. Give it a try!
