"my daughter took lamictal for bipolar 1 condition.  she titrated up as instructed by her psychiatrist. after 3 weeks, her eyes became irritated, she developed white sores inside her mouth, followed by a life threatening rash that put her in the hospital for 3 weeks. it was touch and go for 2 weeks. she was diagnosed with sjs that turned to ten. amniotic membrane was surgically placed into her eyes for protection and she was unable to see for 6 weeks. this medication was not worth the risk."
