[QUOTE="Steely, post: 253354, member: 3301"] Lamictal has been an amazing MS for difficult child. He is hypo-manic, and yet he is on Lithium and Lamictal which are supposed to more geared for the depression. None the less, it has quelled his mania, and stabilized his moods. He just titrated up to 300 mg, and seems to be doing well. As a caveat - and I am sure this is not the norm - but both times difficult child was intitally started on Lamictal he had a rage/meltdown of monumental proportions. He had to be hospitalized both times. It was as if it jolted his brain. Perhaps that is just my difficult child, I don't know. PS You have to be cautious of a rare, but deadly side effect - Stephen Johnson Syndrome on Lamictal. [/QUOTE]
