The great thing about the combo is that when taking lithium and lamictal togther, there appeared to be no need for anything else - no other antidepressant, tranquilizers etc. Granted it was for a short period (3 months). On Lamictal alone I still need at least benzo's from time to time, and maybe will need more (though probably no more antidepressants). I'm trying to make my meds as simple as possible, and avoid the thyroid drugs altogether (the switch from Li was pre-emptive of thyroid and kidney problems). Has anyone taken the Li/Lamictal combo for more than a year?
