Lamictal concerns
Thu, 04/23/2015 - 14:10Hi everyone. I recently switched from Keppra to Vimpat on insistence by my neurologist. It was hell. So now I might switch to Lamictal. It sounds like a decent drug in terms of its intended effects, but I am not thrilled about the black box warning regarding a rare skin disease. Is there anyone that takes Lamictal now? How has your experience been?
The main reason my neurologist took me off Keppra was that it seemed to exacerbate my depressive mood swings. So I'd like to know if anyone takes Keppa XR and how that has treated them, please.
keppra is keppra if you were

keppra is keppra if you were taken off keppra then don't think about it since the main ingredients are in keppra XR
