I suggested that we raise my Lamictal. No, med dude says; 200mg is the maximum dose. No, say I - I have been on 300mg and was quite stable on it for a couple of years.
[/FONT] Well, if you were IP...but there's only so much I can do outpatient. Because they could do your lithium serum right there if you were IP. I can prescribe an extra 100mg of Lamictal, but it's off label.

I took away more than this from your message but I wanted to tell you that I was in a clinical trial that involved lamictal. Halfway through they changed the max dose to 300 mg because it was working better in people who were being given it. I don't know if they ever bothered to get FDA approval for the dose but they absolutely recommended it.
