I've never heard of this. I'm on lamictal too and have never been instructed to do this by my pdoc or the pharmacist. Does the drug insert say anything about this? I'm bad enough around that time of the month and couldn't imagine what it would be like having my meds cut in half. I would suggest asking why they want you to do this.
