[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 50351, member: 1514"] Isnt this the same little boy who just increased the depakote to 2000 mgs a day? I have no idea if depakote can do the same thing but lamictal has a very rare side effect of causing lock jaw. I know a woman who takes it and when she increased to 200 mgs a day of lamictal it started causing this locked jaw effect so she had to take a 25 mg of benedryl along with it to stop the side effect. Now hers didnt interfere with her breathing or anything, it was just uncomfortable. Might want to run it by a pharmacist to see if depakote can have this very rare side effect too. They are in the same class so it may be possible. [/QUOTE]
