In reply to Is there LAMICTAL withdrawal ???, posted by Janelle on February 26, 2004, at 13:55:06
Hi,
I had a very similar situation as you. I was on Lamictal for months - after titrating up slowly and staying for months at 200mg. It wasn't until I started Lithium that I got the rash and I stopped Lam. cold turkey - you have to. It's very dangerous to keep taking something causing an allergic reaction. within 2 days my rash went away and I stayed on Lithium so it was the Lam.
I didn't have an wierd withdrawals. However, I was then in a Li. enduced stupor, so it's hard to say. I think the Li. increased the Lam. or they reacted together. I haven't restarted the Lam. and that was almost two months ago. I'm too scared. And you?
