In reply to Lamictal and/or Neurontin, posted by mmcasey on June 15, 2003, at 14:29:23
i`ve been taking Lamictal for over a year now, and i have found that by keeping my folate intake very high (through supplements; 2400mcg per day) it has not pooped out as an antidepressant. i also found that, though it initially made me gain, discontinuing it for two weeks and then starting over from scratch led to a net weight loss.
neurontin and lamictal can be combined, but neurontin tends to poop-out very quickly and for most people it is not so effective as an antidepressant (it did nothing for me in that regard). it is also more likely to make you gain then is lamictal.
