I have found that there are unacceptable differences in the clinical effects of different brands of lamotrigine. Something should be done about it. To the best of my knowledge, no other anticonvulsant is so variable in its therapeutic effects. I have to jump through some hoops, but I use the Lamictal brand. Mylan lamotrigine was the worst. Teva lamotrigine was the best until they discontinued it and then resumed supplying it. All of their versions are now XR extended release. Obviously this isn't the same product they sold previously. My guess is that the drug is manufactured by the company they acquired, who was already making it. The first XR sold by Teva sucked, from what I understand. Still, it might be worth a try.
If anyone feels that their generic lamotrigine works as well as the original Lamictal, please share your observations. Generic company and dosages would be great information.
