[QUOTE="jamrobmic, post: 62661, member: 1412"] From what I've read, Lamictal works on depression, and it works to reduce cycling, but it doesn't work well on active mania. In my son's case, when he started Lamictal, he was also on Seroquel (had started it a few months before starting Lamictal). For several months, when he didn't take the Seroquel along with the Lamictal (he hated taking Seroquel and would spit it out if we didn't watch him), we knew it by the next evening because he would be raging again. Finally he refused to take the Seroquel at all, but by that time, the Lamictal was working well by itself. He took it alone with good results for about a year until he refused all medications (with not so great results, I might add). [/QUOTE]
