Question about Lamictal?

Some people who have major depression can use Lamictal, which is good for them as part of their treatment, but not everyone can. If you've had a traumatic event, Lamictal has been found to help people with post-traumatic stress disorder. However, it's too early to say for sure which kind of mood disorder would be helped by Lamictal.

Yes, this is normal. I had to take my time with this drug when I first started taking it because I would become so nauseous and dizzy. If I miss a couple of days I cannot go to my regular dosage right away because I will be sick. I take half of my dosage for 3 days then on the 4th I go back to my regular dosage. Listen to your body.

Hi, Kjojo!
Yes, it's "normal" in that it's a very common side effect:
"Gastrointestinal
Very common (10% or more of users): Vomiting (20%), nausea (19%), diarrhea (10%)"
You're probably very sensitive to medications because 25mg/day is the standard starting dose for most individuals for the first 2 weeks or so.
I'd suggest you ask your doctor if you can stay on the 12.5 dose for a bit longer to allow your metabolism to adjust more smoothly. You could also ask your pharmacist for a suggestion for a OTC for the nausea... something like Emetrol, Dramamine, or Pepto.
Best regards and I hope you're feeling better quickly!
