Scott,
Are you taking lamictal for depression and what dosage are you on currently. I am taking it for depression and am currently on 300mg. I tried 400mg briefly and experienced no difference and so I went back down to 300mg. I have been also taking 90mg remeron and 100mg prozac along with the lamictal for unipolar depression for over three months and have been relatively depression free. Do you know or have you heard if lam poops out like all the others? Thanks.

For instance, for a while I couldn't drink plain water because it tasted like salt water. It made good things taste bad. (I don't remember it making bad things taste good :-)). This effect eventually disappeared, but it took quite a few weeks.
