In reply to Anyone had lowered WBC count?, posted by Emme on August 6, 2002, at 11:43:41
A long time Lamictal user, after nearly 6 years of 500mg. daily I've noted no adverse reactions and personally recommend this product to other folks who're able to tolerate it. I use it to moderate bi-polar. It works splendedly where none of the other stuff has, -and trust that I'd run through gazoobers of vials of pharmastuff.
As it happens, I am noting a lower-than-normal White Cell count. (Better than elevated, I say!)
Given the severity of my blessing/curse illness, I accept this possible side-effect and go on with the business of being alive and healthy.Since it was through a recent CBC w/differential that this factor came to light, I'll follow up on this matter and possibly Post here any update if it seems likely to help broaden understanding of the properties of this good drug...
Glaxo has a terrific "patient assistance program" affording poor folks medication at no cost; very handy for recovering nutz such as myself. ;)
