I've been on Lamictal since last november, but 2 weeks ago it was increased from 150mg to 200mgs. Yesterday I started to develop a rash which has spread today. I called my dr and I have to stop the med cold turkey. What should I expect as far as withdrawl side effects go. Has anyone had experience quitting cold turkey? Thanks

There are potentially strong withdrawal symptoms but each person is unique. Here are a bunch of links to various posts or blogs on that topic.

Is there a certain profile for people who will develop the rash? Like to people with fair or sensitive skin tend to get it? I've heard good things about how well the med works.
