[QUOTE="pepperidge, post: 253377, member: 2322"] My son was dramatically improved on Lamictal, but more towards depressive end of things. He was on 100 mg of Topamax which helped some. And when we added Lamictal we slowly weaned him off of Topamax. I am now considering lowering his Risperdal as well. We give it in a divided dose, more in morning 100 mg, 50 mg at night. Don't know if it is strictly necessary, but we thought it might help with side effects. My youngest son also tried it. We got up to 150 mg with no benefits at all. With my oldest we begin to see improvement even at 25 mg. Of all the medications they've been on its the one with least side effects and biggest benefit. [/QUOTE]
