Lamictal - Be Careful

Lamictal is not for everyone and has very serious side effects. If a doctor says they they want to increase the dosage for possible better effects...STOP. Tell the doctor to try something different and something that has been around for some time. The latest and greatest isn't always the best choice. Sometimes the tried and true are the best. I speak from experience after dealing with it for my wife.
