In retrospect I think I was started out low then tapered up. But today I take 100 mg and it works quite well. Lamictal can have a dangerous side effect. If you notice any thing that looks like a rash. See you doctor immediately. There is a rash associated with Lamictal that can be quite serious even life threatening. Even when one has been on the medication for a while this can still occur. I have been on Lamictal for over a year and a half and my psyc doc asked me every time I go in about rashes. Hope is works as well for you as it does for me. By the way 100 mg is the highest recommended dosing for this medication.
