I think this drug works well for me. :-)
I was previously on 100mgs for a while, and then I had a blood test for lamictal levels and then my dr said I had a blood level of half of what it was supposed to be.
It seems they don't often do lamictal blood levels, perhaps that's why my insurance doesn't pay for more of the lab test?
who knows, but going up to 175mgs now, and we shall see....

200mg usally is complete coverage for siezures, and it has an antidepressant effect also. You may just notice...not as much "exciteablity" in things because it lower's electricty and NE flow.
Best of luck

Didn't know that had blood levels for lamictal either. Great it's working well for you. Will you titrate up? Good luck Phillipa

yes, I expect I'll be going up on the med slowly, not sure to what dosage
