[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 39669, member: 1550"] How long has he been on Lamictal and at what dose? You have to give a mood stabilizer eight weeks at a therapeutic dosage. Lithium is known as the Gold Standard for bipolar, however, it also takes at least eight weeks to kick in and must be at a therapeutic dose. After a child is on a stable dose, you don't need weekly blood draws, but you do at first. [/QUOTE]
