I have never had any sid effects with this medication and have taken it for 3 year now. I guess that it depends on your chemistry that you have side effects, I go to thereapy for bipolar and there are some that have had effects and there are some that I havent. For those that have had side effects that are not serious, they will go away in a couple of days, but for those that have had serious effects should contact your dr. In order for it to work, or for any medication to work, you have to take it to get into your system, so I have nothing but postive things to say about it... there are somethings that you can not take with the lamictal which may increase side effects, for example you can not drink grape fruit juice, or orange juice , because it decreases the strengh of the medication.. I hope that those have stopped taking Lamictal ( which is a big no no anyway, and have been advised to ask your doctor to futher assist) that will give another try and take it longer than a couple of days. Since i have been on it, I have had no problems with all of what bipolar traits are, there is a difference between bipolar and being depressed. Flbipolarcub
