>I think they do have a titration pack here, but pdocs don't seem to use it.
There is one, yes, but it's not much used (by anyone) - nor is it necessary since it's just as easy to prescribe some 25mg tablets generically. The titration pack is only available as 'Lamictal' so it's a waste of money anyway. Most people are started as per the SPC eg. 25mg/day for two weeks then 50mg/day for two weeks then 100mg/day etc. It might be a good idea to titrate even more gradually in your case.
