Like you Janis, I tried both Clonazepam and Zonnisamide in addition to Lamictal. They were killers. I've been on Lamictal for ten years now with no side effects. I hope it works out for you.

Many, many thanks for all those positive replies. I am massively grateful for the improvement that I've experienced since being on Lamotrigine, and for all the help that you wonderful people have sent me. I wish you all seizure free futures.

I’ve been on Lamictal for 15 years and I can’t complain whatsoever. But it’s always individual. I often get the rare side effects of medications to the point that I’ve been called hypochondriac. But Lamictal has been fine now at 550 mg. It can cause a rash, so it’s something to keep an eye on.

yes. I still do. It works Great! I take 300 mg twice a day! The only side affects I ever had were tremors in my hands. That went away a long time ago!

I've been on Lamotrigine for 7 years, and haven't had any side effects from it.
