In reply to Lamictal for ssri augmentation ? Please help !, posted by ben on July 17, 2001, at 13:24:28
My pdoc is of the opinion that Lamictal is an ACTIVATING med, but not to the point of inducing mania - in fact, she told me it is used as a MOOD STABILIZER (keeps you from going too far up or too far down), and just started me on it!
Nothing to report as of yet (no improvement in my condition, but no "bad" side effects either), but I'm only on a microdose and it's only been a few days ...
I'd say give Lamictal a try, given what you mentioned - check with your pdoc.
Good luck!
