> 1. Is there a way to get a reliable/interpretable Lamictal blood level? My psychiatrist says there isn't but people with epilepsy get their level taken so it must be possible. Has anyone had it done? What are the guidelines timing wise?

When I switched to a new pdoc almost two years ago, I had blood work done and she ordered test for Lamictal levels. I have no idea as far as what you can interpret from the results, however pdoc lowered my dose from 300mg to 200mg after getting it checked. How that related to the blood test I don't know it didn't really come up. Also now I only take 150mg seems to be the best dose for me.
