I take 600 MG of Lamictal (which is 200 MG above the FDA recommendation) along with 6 other meds. My pdoc initially wanted to increase my lamictal to 800 MG, but I refused. While I'm not sure which meds do what and I'm not sure I've gotten much better on any of them, I can say that when I was in my early 20's I got down to only lamictal and was well on only that med. Of course I got so much better that I quit my meds and had several years pass before needing meds again.
