What Are The Side Effects Of Lamictal?
I was checking into the side effects of lamictal, which I have been on for at least ten years. I am not confident in my dr's advice anymore. I ask him about the side effects and combination of the medicines he has me taking, and I have even questioned the pharmacist about them, and she just says that if she calls to let him know they contradict each other he just overrides it. I have so many of the side effects of just the lamictal, I'm afraid to look up the other medicines. What do I do. ? He has never done any blood work or tests to check on my treatment progress. What do I do???

Hello,
You are on lamotrigine medicine which is used to treat epilepsy means seizure disorder. This is very effective medicine. Many antiepileptic medications may csuse various side effects but benefits of these medicines are more than the harms. But if you come across any side effect of the medicine then tell your doctor in details about that so that he may decide whether to change medicine or not depending on your problem and present condition of the disease. So lets have faith in your doctor. Take care.
