Anybody can get Seborrheic Dermatitis at any time from reactions to soap or brushing or getting scratched by plants or even anxiety syndromes.
Taking Lamictal at the same time may bring on the thought that it is connected but correlation does not always imply causation.
However if one has had a substantial rash (not a small seb derm) on one's arm on a previous trial, then caution will robinson as for trying it again. A lot of doctors would say no.
But as a lot of posters have said, the titration is way too large -- it is always done slowly to offset Stevens-Johnsons Syndrome. 25 for two weeks and then 50 for two weeks and then maybe faster at 100 and 150 and 200, etc.
