Took double dose of Lamictal for 6 days. Help!

Posted by ihatedrugs on September 13, 2012, at 19:52:09

I've been on 200mg Lamictal for about 8 months. My insurance changed and now I'm allowed to get brand name meds for $30.00 so I switched to brand name Lamictal as I've read it's superior to the generic version. Somehow, I forgot that the brand name Lamictal comes in 200mg versus the generic 100mg. During the last 6 days I have been taking 400mg of Lamictal instead of 200mg(I counted the pills in the bottle). I've had a massive headache and my mood went from functional to severely depressed and angry. Will my mood stabilize now that I've corrected the dose or have I screwed it up and the Lamictal will not work at the lower dose? I know I will know in a few days but has this happen to anyone? If so what was the outcome. I'm so afraid this will bring me back to the darkness.

Thanks,

Lamictal 200mg
Xanax 3 x a day (I belive 1 mg each)
Wellbutrin 300mg
Vyvanse 60mg
Cerefolin
Adderall as needed
