In reply to Re: lamictal newbie--What's the RASH like?, posted by fluffy on April 4, 2003, at 12:58:29

Hi, I have been on the Lamictal and have a slight rash from it. I sleep better when I take it at night too. The rash is more like the pores of my arms and legs with red bumps/rash-it's hard to explain. I do know, that when I get some sun, they subside. I take 50 mg of Lamictal. I could never go above, or should I say, stay with any dosage above 50 mg due to unwanted side effects.
No, try not to get freaked so soon. When I read that side effect, I got scared, but took the med and it helped A LOT and the rash-didn't kill me. Remember though that all our "systems" are different.
I am happy to hear that you feel the Lamictal is working for you and keep us posted :0)
I wish you the best.
Kristen
