Re: Got Lamictal, Now how to start

Definitely don't start higher than 25mg. If you (by chance) are taking Depakote you should only do 25mg every other day since Depakote doubles the half life of Lamictal.

If you go up 25mg every week you _should_ be OK. If you notice a rash of sometype (www.crazymeds.org under the lamictal tab has pics) stop and as I did start at a slower rate.

It's a good med if you can wait it out so don't rush to jump up in dose as I did the first time I tried it.

Good luck!
