I am not sure if the two are related or not, but ever since I went up to 300 mg. of Lamictal I am having really intense, very pleasurable orgasms!
![]() I did a google search, and found some evidence of increased sexual effects on Lamictal for some people. Anyway, I am not complaining, this is one of the best side-effects EVER! Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this?

Yes, there are other people who have experienced this great side effect. In fact, I seem to recall a thread awhile back in the Psychiatric Meds forum on this topic. Enjoy!

When I was on Neurontin I had really pleasurable ones. Not on Lamictal where it was all tamed down.

3 of them today... Each one intense, like I was shooting heroin or something. (Not that I ever have, but I have read a lot about it)
Even the afterglow after each one was really strong and lasting. I really hope Lamictal keeps treating me so good longterm. It has decreased my irritability, eliminated my depression, increased my energy levels and put my sex life into overdrive. gawdamm miracle drug!!!

What a shame my Prozac does the opposite for me... but whadaya gonna do? You have to make a choice sometimes with your meds. Sanity or amazing orgasms but off-the-wall mood swings. Enjoy your side effects as long as you can. (Grumble grumble... and admiration... lol)

At first Lamictal seemed to dampen my sex drive a bit. Once I got up to 300 mg (considered a hefty dose for monotherapy) is when I started noticing the increased sexual pleasure.

Ive been on it for six months. Hubby is a happy camper, there were time where he turned me down. It is a side effect. Love that side effect. Ive slow down though. This has made me sad.

Now I understand what I have been experiencing on 300mg Lamotrigine! This is one heck of a drug!

I would say YES too, definitely. I should ask Doc to go up to 300 mg too!
![]() When I was on Ability and other anti-depressants I had no sex drive whatsoever.

Absolutely! Although mine started just as soon as I started taking Lamictal. It ramped up my sex drive to an insane amount. But sadly it didn't last very long, maybe a few months. Now I'm on 300mg and my old, low-libido is back.
