I just started a titration dose of Lamictal for violent mood swings and that is 25mg to 50mg in one week then if i need more my p-doc visit two days ago said to call the office and she would send a script request to my pharmacy for further increase. One of my Yahoo SZA support group admins says she is on 200mg and is doing well managing her symptoms. I just think 25mg to start is way too low and from what I've read on webmd.com and drugs.com that it takes "weeks" to feel the full effect. OK, but that sucks cause my mood swings are pronounced and I can go from feeling fine and friendly to mean, cursing, and throwing tools at the farm I work at for a small family business I work as a farm hand. Anybody on Lamictal find that it works for you if you've been on it a while? Thx!
