Hello, all .

First and foremost, thank you for taking the time to read this. I've been on Lamictal for just over two weeks (18 days). In that time, I haven't changed much in the way of increasing exercise and considering a better diet. If anything, I've been slacking on exercise, and being naughty with my diet. However, I have noticed a steady weight loss. It's not in the range of being unhealthy, but it is noticeable. Personally, I love the result but I'm still a tad concerned about it. Hence this thread. Have you lost weight whilst on Lamictal?

I would read the side-effects pamphlet first, but I don't have one. When the pharmacist packed up my meds, she removed it from the original box, and put it into a plain white box with the sticker. The pamphlet is with the original box in the pharmacy.

Again, thank you for taking the time to read and share your experinces with me.

I've lost about 8 lbs since I started Lamictal a few months ago but I was a little overweight anyways.

If you don't have the package insert try looking up your meds on a site like drugs.com

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
