I have to switch from Teva lamotrigine to another brand: Anyone had one that works?
Sat, 10/27/2018 - 15:17Topic: Medication Issues
I'm about to run out of Teva lamotrigine and it's not available anymore, so I need to switch to another brand of lamictal in a week. These can be bought at my drug store (I can't drive, so go no further than that): lamictal tablets from Alembic, Unichem, Torrent or Zydus. Does anyone who's used lamotrigine from Teva also taken one of those and had no problem? Thank you!

Teva is the maker of many medications. Lamictal is the brand name. Almost any brand of lamotrigine will work. I have used several makers. It is the generic of lamictal
