I have been Lamictal for about two years now, for the help in controlling cluster headaches. I recently started breaking out in a rash, could this be because of the Lamictal? The rash or hives are in one area, which is on my neck and shoulder on the left side. I hate to call my doctor if it nothing. I haven't changed anything that I have been eating or using. Any help would be appreciated. AThomas

Stop taking the drug immediately. If a rash appears, it is probably Stevens-Johnson Syndrome, which can be deadly.
