In reply to Lamictal fading, posted by deli on May 9, 2003, at 11:16:39
I've gone up to 600mg of Lamictal, but the effect still faded. 100mg of Prozac is a lot- you might want to talk to your pdoc. However originally it was thought that 20mg of Prozac was the most you should use, but there are people who only respond at 80mg. My pdoc's motto is to keep increasing the dose of meds to the limit unless the side effects become too great. Why not?
Hope this helps!

> I have been taking Lamictal for 9 months and was feeling pretty good. But lately, I feel I am sinking again. I hate this rollercoaster. I am also taking 80mg Prozac. You'd think this alone should do the trick. I just upped my dosage to 100mg today. I did it on my own. I don't want to see my boring dr. Is this too much Prozac? Should I also up the Lamictal from 200 to 250 mg. I am just asking because many of you know as much or probably more than pdocs. I am going on a big vacation in a week and feel like crap. I don't want to ruin it for my husband and kids. Any ideas?
