Jane,
Thanks for your reply.
I started again on 12.5 mg of lamictal after 10 days.
I noticed a mild, almost ignorable, continous itch.I am sure it is the lamictal. Let me wait for 2 weeks
before upping the dose to 25 mg if all goes well.I'm in India now and my shrink does not know much
about the lamictal.i'm bipolar, and my only other medicene is haldol
1.5 mg in the morning, and gabapentin(neurontin) 800
mg for anxiety in the night.if you are on depakote it explains why you can go up only 12.5 mg at a time.
