I found the side affects too difficult to handle. the weakness, dizziness, and overall feeling of being sick were not worth it. I am currently going off this medication.

Lamictal is very effective for my bipolar type 2 depression, a lifesaver! No side effects whatsoever. I have been on 300 mg every am for the last 8 yrs.

I have been taking this drug for 18years. It really helps my mood and anxiety. I can’t say enough great things about it! Be careful of the manufacturer though, because generics vary 20% from brand. I prefer Teva Lamotrigine above all others and Cipla is the very worst.
