Hi there ladies & gents. I have just joined this group and it seems really nice and welcoming
I was going to ask something, has anyone had any sort of memory trouble when taking the lamotrigine medication? I was on 100mg 3 times a day and my memory really did seem faint. I was getting really worried about this but the doctors didn't really do anything about it. I have had the lamotrigine decreased as I am taking a higher dose of keppra now but really would like someone to write back if they… read more

I took Dilantin for a few years as a child. I'm not sure why my doctor switched me from Dilantin to Tegretol, but I'm assuming it's because I broke through on it. I really liked it, but I suppose what I'm on now is best for controlling my seizures.

The first week after my hospital stay I felt great with higher dosage and added benzo. I’ve been on Lamictin for 10 years and doing great on it. Btw this is the same as Lamictal, both manufactured by GSK, even packaging is similar, but called Lamictin in South Africa
Then 2 weeks ago the pharmacy said they have trouble with the suppliers of Lamictin and big shortages but that the generic Epitec (manufactured by Cipla) is as good as the original (my neurologist also okayed the change). Suddenly… read more

I think it's a side effect. I'm on lamictal and depakote.

I have been taking Klonopin two times one during the day and one at night for the last month. I take Lamotrigine 300 in the morning and 60mg of cymbalta for years for depression. I have a birthmark surrounding my left eyelid and left front forhead. Lately my left eyelid swells up everyday. I have Sturge Weber Syndrome also which causes seisures also.Thank you

I personally feel and tests confirm that my kidney health declining, any medication has faced such issue of side effects of seizures medications.

Mine is 300mg bid
Only 2 grand mals since 2015 and monthly absence seizures

I'm on trileptal & lamical. Was wondering if anyone has problems with memory? I'm thinking of asking my neurologist if can start decrease my trileptal (bad memory problems) & increase my lamical. Anyone solely on lamical & had good results.

I was wondering if anyone on here take Lamictal (Lamotrigine), and has found an effective method of birth control, other than an IUD. I used to take pills, but now they are saying they decrease the effectiveness of the Lamictal, and they keep pushing for an IUD, and I will not get that. Lol

Added Lamictal/ Lamotigine 200 mg 2x day as a add on to Keppra 1500 mg 2x day for Grand Mals. I’m proud to say I’m 1 year Seizure Free May 2018 on this. Before this I was almost 3 years Seizure free but had resurfaced seizure activity April and May 2017. However since adding Lamotrigine June 2017 I have more side effects other than the quick fatigue have on Keppra. Since my seizures are controlled I haven’t pushed it too much to go off not to mention seems all meds have negatives. But my goal… read more
