In reply to Lamictal withdrawal or oxycontin?, posted by floridagal on May 25, 2006, at 18:20:07
> My fiance left for the hospital today to be "detoxed" from Lamictal. He takes 300mg/day as a mood stabilizer for bipolar. However, I cannot find anything online about the withdrawal symptoms of lamictal. He had major restless legs and arms last night and seems really depressed. Has anyone out there ever quit lamictal cold turkey? If so, what happened? I am curious because I have a suspision that he is also coming off oxycontin. Thank you for any help you can give.
I have stopped taking lamictal after 4 months of taking it and I had absolutely no withdrawal. It is very likely that your husbands withdrawal is from oxycontin. It can be as bad as heroin withdrawal.
