Just to clarify....I am refering to lamictal used as a conjunctive to an AD and specifically in cyclic mood disorders.
Revolution health ratings. FYI
Bipolar nos 7.9
Bipolar l 7.1
Bipolar ll 7.1
BPD 8.2Total average of 7.5
I'd say that's a pretty good track record in comparrison to other mood stabilizers with nasty side effects.I think tricyclics are great drugs, however, they will induce cycling in mood disorders. Been there done that......Maoi's are great for atypical depression and Bipolar in combo with
a mood stabilizers. pubmed.gov has tons of research and psycheducation.orgSorry blueberry, but lets just agree to disagree.
Effexor/lamictal/clonopin-as needed.
