In reply to Lamictal: anyone found remedy for headaches?, posted by qbsbrown on December 10, 2007, at 10:48:32
I took lamictal for six months. I am bipolar (more depression than mania) and it was by far the best mood stabilizer I ever used. The only side effect didn't even start until five month in???- horrible headaches. I was 23, a college student. The doctors didn't even know it was lamictal for a month. I tried about every pain killer out there- heavy duty prescriptions- vicodin, dyladide, etc. Finally I had to go off lamictal. If you ever find another way let me know. Now I'm on lithium, and it's ok, but I have some weight gain and some hypomaniac episodes lamictal prevented.
