Lamictal has a longer half life than a lot of the psych meds so you are definitely at the 50mg in your system. You don't have to split the dose if you don't want to. I take 150mg all in the morning. 200mg is the average dose, you'll see anything between 150-300 for bipolar. I hope you feel better soon. A lot of people start feeling the Lamictal working once you get to 100mg. herpills
