I Just started Lamictal 25 mg yesteday, took second does this evening, then later though I hadn't taken my dose and therefore took a 3rd dose.....about 30 minutes go by and I am drunk, drugged, stoned, its crazy..I can't walk, talk normally.

Does this warrant more then a sleep it off stage?

If you've only taken 75mg you should be fine but call you Pdoc to let him know so he can tell you what you should do.

50mg is actually the normal dosage once you have adjusted.

Don't drive or operate machinery while you feel like this. Stay in and get some rest.

You can call your doctor if you feel you need to.
