lamictal

Avatar n tn I went from taking nothing to taking Klonipin 1mg 3-4x/day, Inderal 10mg 3x/day, and Lamictal. I got up to 150mg of the Lamictal after 7weeks. I had a dangerous and deadly reaction to the Lamictal. I was told to stop it suddenly. My life has been a disaster ever since. I feel I was better before I took all of this stuff. I have been suicidal due to the sudden stop of the meds. Last Saturday i tried to kill myself. I took 90mg of klonopin and about 45mg of inderal. I awoke about 6 hrs.
Avatar f tn By the way,,,how rude of me,,, how are you now? Did the numbness go away?
Avatar n tn Guaifenesin, how much is an Overdose? My daughter 11 years old 100 lbs (big for her age), took (the correct dose) 5mL cough and cold medicine that had the following in that dose. Guaifenesin, USP 100 mg, Dextromethorpan HBr, USP 10 mL. Phenylephedrine HCI, USB 5mg. But then she also took (the correct dose) 10 mg of a prescription medicine Guaifenesin-Codeine syrup (generic for Robitussin AC syrup). It doesn't state on the label the quantity of Guaifenesin mg in the 5mL dose.
Avatar n tn Hi, I was diagnosed with bipolar depression in March. I was prescribed Lamictal and Klonopin to start out. Two weeks later, after an alcohol related suicide attempt, I was put on Wellbutrin for depression. I take 200mg twice a day. I take 150mg of Lamictal, I take 1 mg of Ativan as needed and was recently put on Busbar (starting out with 5mg twice a day and working my way to 10mgs twice a day). I have had severe anxiety and panic attacks for years now, which is due to a laundry list of things.
Avatar m tn I told my p-doc I was still depressed and she suggested that we lower Lamictal instead of increasing Wellbutrin (which she said I was maxed out on). I have been a proponent of 'less medication', so I am unsure of what to ask at my upcoming new psychiatrist appointment. Since graduating, I haven't spoken with any t-doc or p-doc in around 8 months. For the last year or so I was taking 300mg/day Wellbutrin Xr and also 200mg lamictal. I have also taken Buspar for around a year.
Avatar f tn Thanks so much for your comments and encouragement. I am on 200 mg Lamictal plus 20 mg Lexapro. With that combination I feel a lot better. So glad I stopped the Seroquel and Depakote. The meditation sounds like a good idea for the anxiety -- I still feel that way sometimes but try to put those thoughts out of my mind. Good luck to you also!
Avatar m tn ER nurses and doctors are trainned to see signs of drug overdose. If they suspect overdose they will get you the help you need. Panic attacks will not have same symptoms. So I agree with everything that hadenough123. It has been a while for me also since I worked ER.
3149845 tn?1506627771 Does anyone know how much tylenol intake will cause liver damage. I ask this as have read a few help posts and some people are taking 20 norcos a day which is 10mg of opiate and 325 mg of tylenol. I was doing some math and taking 20 a day adds up to almost 1/4 ounce of tylenol a day, or 1/2 lb a month and a whopping 6 lbs a year!!!
Avatar m tn t pay for the lamictal I was taking, and even if I tried, lamictal was a pretty stiff liver hazard penalty. I know that others have had it much worse. Maybe I'm spoiled, I know that I am weak. I can't concentrate, I hate the way I look, I hate the mean way that I act and think. I hate the mean, terrible things that happen in this world to people that don't seem to deserve it. Little innocent children killed and mistreated. I want out, I can't help feeling this way.
1108183 tn?1292416673 I just started taking Methotrexate after recently being diagnosed with RA, and have been taking Lamictal for years now for my depression. I read that both Lamictal and Methotrexate depletes your body of folic acid. My question is- If I take a multi vitamin that has 200 mgs of vitamin C and 400 mcg's of folic acid- would it be too much to take another 500 mgs of vitamin C and 800 mcgs of folic acid on top of the multi vitamin? I just want to take extra precautions from getting sick.
Avatar f tn I take about 18 Lyrica a day. Please help me. I will die from overdose or severe depression. I have no one to talk to. My teenage daughters are suffering with me.
Avatar m tn My friend is starting to go down the same road that many of you have (I'll admit I've popped a few every now and then) and i don't know when to tell him how much is too much at a time(needing a visit to the hospital). He mainly uses Hydrocodone and Lortab could anyone give me a ballpark estimate on how many mg's he should stop at?
Avatar n tn it depends how much your friend was consuming before he swallowed? i knew people who would sit and blow a 1/4oz in a sitting it deends on his tolerance.
Avatar n tn Call me crazy but I think 20mg of Xanax is a boat load in a 24 hour period!! That might kill a person who doesn't have tolerance and even one that does!! Does she drink alcohol as well? A deadly combo! The largest dose of a single Xanax is 2mg...and that's going to put most people out for a bit or get really relaxed...
Avatar n tn How much vitamin D3 are you taking? Recommended daily dosage is between 400 and 2400 IU, depending on who you talk to, although tests have been done with subjects taking up to 10,000 IU with no reported overdosing problems. Also, you should be taking it with a meal containing fat, since D3 is fat solluble. Maybe there's something else. I'll presume you've discontinued your vitamin D3 supplementation?
Avatar m tn Tapering off just means to reduce slowly. The only lower dose of Lamictal is 25mg. When you started Lamictal I am sure you were on 25mg for one or two weeks and then moved to 50mg for one or two weeks and would have increased again... Tapering is opposite of the increase procedure.
Avatar f tn Anneinside I lost much of my weight from diet and working our. I make sure I only eat about 1200 calories a day based on how much I work out. Almost I got put in adderall and it helped a lot. If you go to your gunocologist she may be able to prescribe you bobtrile. It is an aid in weight loss and helps sooooo much!
558156 tn?1217727396 I think Im just paranoid and anxious about how much Im using. Its really starting to screw with my head. I know my anxiety disorder is worse now that Ive been using again.
Avatar n tn I was put on lamictal for my mood swings related to a TBI. I was on lamictal for 3 months, when the leg muscle stiffness and knee pain started. It got so severe after 5 months, I demanded to be taken off of it. I was taking 25mg, even though my doctor didn't believe the problem was lamictal, he told me to stop taking it the next day. The withdrawal is living hell. I have been off it for 3 weeks and the stiffness and pain is better, but I feel like I have the flu and the diarrhea is bad.
Avatar n tn Yes it usually is caused by an infectious agent such as a bacteria or virus. So, that if Lamictal can cause meningitis is probably because it may lower your immune system and possibly allow one to get an infection.
Avatar f tn Talk to your dr and tell him you want to change because you believe it is causing a weight problem and others have had the same problem that you have talked to. That way you have something to stabllize you. Actually, the Lamictal worked much better for me.
Avatar m tn I take Wellbutrin, Lamictal, and will be resuming Zoloft soon.
