I was placed on Lamictal and titrated up to 200 mg. I was then given 300 mg due to my complaints of cycling everyday. This helped. A couple of months later (2 or 3), I noticed a significant change. First, I started feeling much better from my depression. Then I had over one month of a very stable mood where I was very good. This has not happened to me in a long time. This happened a few months after the dose change. I am depressed now but still relatively stable.
Can Lamictal have its full effect a few months after starting a new dose?
