Lamictal dosage

Posted by blueboy on June 9, 2008, at 7:39:47

After my diagnosis of Bipolar II, my pdoc started me on lamotrigine. I took 2 weeks at 25mg and I just started 50 mg per day.

He indicated that most of his patients who use it stay at 50 mg per day, although one of them gets sufficient effect at 25 mg and doesn't want to increase.

Then I hear online a lot of people taking like 200-300 mg per day!

Does anyone have any insight on this? I know dosages can be higher for epileptic problems, I'm just talking about lamotrigine taken to treat Bipolar II.
