[QUOTE="WNC Gal, post: 55384, member: 3783"] My daughter got up to 200 mg Lamictal over the course of the past eight months, but it really didn't seem to help her at all. So they have cut her dose of Lamictal down to 100 mg, lowered her Depakote from 1250 to 1000 and eliminated her Lexapro. But her new anti-depressant may work better (Remeron)- we'll see. She had also been on Seroquel (75 mg) which was tapered off over time. The very tricky thing with multi-medications is that you don't really know which ones are causing which side effects. Our usually slender child is now about 20 pounds heavier, has a hand tremor, and had been extremely sleepy during the day. She has basically NO improvement in her depression, suicidality nor impulse control after six months of tweaking and increasing the doses of all of the above medications. Hoping for a miracle!
