i've been taking lamictal since i was about 8 years old so 10 years for the same reason. it really helps me as long as i don't miss a dose. try not to miss any doses and it should work.
does lamictal xr with an antidepressent assist in the treatment of severe depression. no seizures or and not bi-polar? . i was prescribed lamictal xr along with pristiq last spring in the treatment of my depression. i've been on a 1000 different meds but this seems to be the only thing that works. my insurance company is saying that because i am taking lamicta l i must be bi-polar. never had manic symptoms only depression. most definitely not bi-polar! . if you could please tell me if lamictal is ever used in the treatment of depression i would be grateful. thank you in advance!
