I've been on Lamictal for over a year now. I was on 50mg then 100mg then 150mg then I stopped it (stupidly) so I started back at 50mg and over 4 weeks went up to 200mg - been on 200mg now since January, and to be honest I don't really feel any different than what I felt at 50mg.... I've now been put on Seroquel 400mg which has made a difference. I can now tell the difference when I take them. Some days if I forget to take them I'm really bouncy and have loads of energy. So they must be working!
I don't think that by changing from Lamictal (if it isn't working so well) will do any good as I react to most meds.....I'm actually in the process of going back to see my Psychiatrist as the Seroquel has made me put on loads of weight...
I had a slight rash when I went on Lamictal but nothing serious.....the only time the rash is serious is when it covers your whole body, top to bottom.
