Now that Lamictal is available as generic lamotrigine, I believe the company has discontinued the starter packs. I guess it's do-it-yourself titration. Worth getting a good pill splitter at the drugstore for a few dollars.
If the acne continues to be a problem, perhaps something topical like benzoyl peroxide would be beneficial for prevention so you don't have to take antibiotics frequently.
